I was playing with some older Velvia slides to see if anything was salvagable from the days of not owning filters and ran across this one. I believe the gritty look is due to dirty optics on the never serviced - 10 year old Nikon LS-2000 scanner. Info on this century's
slide scanners would be greatly appreciated!

Same here Jesse. The LS-2000 didn't do it justice but the color is true to Velvia and I thought the image was worthy of another chance with the high-res scanners avaiable in this century.

Great shot Larry...I may or may not have been there.....he he.....
I am trying to buy some film for the F4s and use my DX 18mm on it....that makes it about a 9mm fisheye.....very cool effect and everything is tack sharp....gonna test this theory tomorrow....
Ill be sending you some slides to scan for me
Freddies had Sensia 100 that was over a year passed its due date.....the lady had no Idea what I was talking about and played stupid.....go figure!!!
