The single most important element in
the production of high-quality scans is
the lens. As you would expect from a
world leader in optical technology, Nikon
has incorporated lenses of the highest
quality in each of our film scanners.
Compared to ordinary glass, our ED (Extra-low Dispersion) lens ele-
ments are superior in edge-to-edge sharpness, definition and con-
trast, as well as color registration, saturation and accuracy. No
scanner manufacturer can match this level of optical performance.

Most competitors’ scanners use
halogen or fluorescent lamps as light
sources, but they require time to warm
up and the heat they generate can
cause damage to film. Nikon’s
COOLSCAN series are the only scan-
ners to employ LEDs as their source of light. LEDs are a stable,
precise light source requiring neither maintenance nor warmup
time, and there’s no risk of your film suffering heat-related damage.
LED illumination also assures stability in color characteristics, which
contributes to faithful reproduction.
Low-heat, high-accuracy LED light source
The Nikon Color Management System,
or Nikon CMS, provides consistently
accurate reproduction of image data on
monitors and in printouts. This powerful
tool permits the manipulation of colors
in the calibrated RGB color spaces
before the data are transferred to the host application. Profiles
detailing the color characteristics and the output device (monitor or
printer) ensure high color-accuracy in almost any operating environ-
ment. Each scanner in Nikon’s COOLSCAN lineup is compatible
with ICC (International Color Consortium) version 4 standards.

Advanced™ with Digital ICE Professional™
Dynamic, sophisticated core technologies. A history of excellence in digital imaging. World-renowned optics. These are the
attributes that have made Nikon the dominant force in the desktop film scanning market.
Nikon’s COOLSCAN lineup features three models, each offering superior optical components, color reproduction and image
correction functions, along with incomparable operability. Every model, however, also possesses defining capabilities that,
when integrated with Nikon’s advanced core technologies, make each COOLSCAN scanner the best in its class.
Whether for home use or for application in small- to large-scale business operations, Nikon COOLSCAN desktop film scan-
ners get the job done — better and faster than any in the field.
In the decade since Nikon unveiled the first COOLSCAN film
scanner, we have accumulated considerable expertise and
applied it to the development of exclusive, cutting-edge
technologies. They serve as the foundation for the unparalleled
performance offered by each model in the COOLSCAN lineup.
