- Don't count on future support for Nikon scanners
My review deals with all Nikon scanners based on my experiences with the Nikon LS-4000 ED scanner and Nikon's lack of commitment in the very area that once made them the first choice for professional and serious amateur photographers.We spent several thousand dollars on a scanner that, although being a recent product, will not work on Mac OS X Leopard or Windows Vista, even though Nikon claims to support both.The Nikon Scan app that supposedly works with our systems will not recognize the scanner ...
