The Minolta Scan Dual IV used with Silverfast 6.6 SE is great for archiving
3 of 3 found this helpful I have both the Minolta Scan Dual IV and a Nikon Coolscan 4000 ED. The Minolta work flow is faster and it produces good slide and film scans with the latest version of the Minolta software. If you buy and use Silverfast 6.6 SE, it is capable of nearly matching the Nikon (probably even better with Kodachrome). Batch scanning with the holders works well, and is easier than the Nikon.
Also, the Minolta does APS. It works great with the AD-10 adapter (if you can find one). Even does 110 and 126 well enough with the film holder.
I scanned 3800 Kodachrome slides, 300 E-6 colour slides, and 1500 colour negatives with the Minolta (all at 3200 dpi).
This scanners' only weakness is the Minolta and Silverfast software don't do a good job with damaged, dirty of faded colour positive and negative film. I use the Nikon with ICE and ROC for that work.
Overall I like the Minolta so much that I bought a second one to start scanning 6000 colour negatives. Make sure you clean the internal mirror first if you get one!
