I think what Magnar meant to say was more like this...

"Nikon and Canon are top brands for older photographers, those who like comfortable cameras with ergonomic controls. Newcomers to photography...

Just to be clear, I'm only talking about scanning negatives. The V500 is good for reflective, and o.k for transparencies. Maybe it's something to do with the reversal process.

No, the colour is not bad. But the detail is not good at all. It produces a lot of sharpening artefacts (even with sharpening turned down), and bright speckle pixels. The OP's second photo (viewed ...

The vuescan one doesn't look too bad, in terms of detail. The Epson software is pretty awful (I have it with a V500). I think the biggest problem is that you have an either/or issue, but vuescan ...

That's a lie. How can you have massive chroma NR on one image, but not on the other? Are there not sliders to control noise reduction? And no, I don't have lightroom. I use ACR in PS. And I can get...

I've put his version up on my gallery here...

and here's a closeup that shows the chroma NR in the Sony image (most visible...

Now look at the playing cards on his Fuji version. The details have retained their correct colours, meaning that he HASN'T applied massive chroma NR to that image. But wait! There is no colour...

OK, here we go.
First off, this is going to be my last post on this topic. This isn't worth anyone's time. Here's why...
Take a good look at the shots PWPhotography posted. Particularly the one...

@The Davinator,
I don't think this guy could conceive of using anything that hasn't got Sony written on it!
But I'm more interested in why he thinks we can judge his "results" from a 1600 pixel...

1. A7II has worst high ISO noise of it’s generation.

2. Several APS-C cameras have better high ISO noise than a7II (X-H1, D500)

3. 2 years older D600 sensor beats a7II sensor in...

@PWP
Sorry PWP, I forgot to mention that I decided not to bother with that 3 post thing. That's far too much time to spend on your wacky posts. All the facts fit into one simple post. So, for...

@PWP
This is the last message I'm going to type out to you. It's obvious you can't make any sense of any of this. In a exercise where the goal would be to equalise everything, you're now saying...

@ The Davinator
I guess you're right. It's entertaining to watch someone keep going for as long as this guy has, posting the same nonsense over and over again as if he's got the answer, but without...

@PWP
"@Slides, why continue endlessly in arguing at losing side ;-)"

Because I'm not. I said that the X-H1 had better high ISO noise than the...
