FlexTight Precision II Summary: A really good value that delivers top quality for the user that knows his hardware and knows what he wants to get from his orginals. Strengths: This scanner is a really good scanner for the money. The software is easy to understand, real easy for photographers - that know their RGB curves. The scan quality is among the best you get, when the user "knows" the scanner and the software. Its fast, real fast and does a good job scanning negs, although you allways need to really tweak those curves to get a decent neg scan. But that is the case on every scanner I have tried and I feel that the Precision does a better job than most of them. Weaknesses: Noise problems can be seen, mainly on dense 35mm negs (highlight) or slides. This is easy to fix - upgrade to ColorFlex 1.9.5 and run the CCD calibration process. After that 99% of the problem is gone. If you still see noise you will have problems scanning this orginal on every CCD scanner. The "auto" color-analysing is not as good as in other software packages as LinoColor or Scitex. But I dont have a problem with this since I like to be in total control. To get the most out of the Precision the user needs to spend some time with the scanner, get to know the diffrent scan modes and his orginals. Similar Products Used: Linocolor Circon

Scitec Eversmart Pro II Customer Service: In my case the customer service (directly from Denmark) has been brilliant.
