I finally managed to restore my old film scanner.
It had been banished to the basement many years ago after stalls during scanning had become more frequent.
It took me several hours to disassemble it, clean the optics, remove the old grease that had hardened into candle wax and apply new grease to the bearings.
Now it is like new again.
Its handling better for scanning 35mm film than the V700. Also it is much faster, SCSI is a harddisk interface after all.
The resolution of 2700dpi yields ca. 3600 x 2400pixels per frame.
It can do Infrared cleaning on colour films and does focus to the emulsion.
Because of its SCSI interface it is an order of magnitude cheaper than its Firewire- and USB cousins.
It runs without any configuring or drivers on an old computer running Linux Mint and Vuescan scanning software.
If you still have a LS-2000 don't throw it away.
After having a weird image from the scanner going off while cleaning it, I instinctively hit 'scan' to try and save it, but of course there was nothing on the scanner bed and it was still open, so I got up and glanced at the bed while it was saving the scan, and it got my face...cool eh?
This is Scanner Dan. "Slightly neurotic, greasy, larger homeless man that frequents State Street on a regular basis, who also supports the UW Greek System and LOOOVES the GAmma Phi ladies. Must ride a bicycle with a police scanner attatched to his hip. Hence the name, Scanner." (From Urbandictionary.com)
Note the particles of ash on his glasses
And here is a Badger Herald article about Scanner. Very interesting reading, by the way.

A collection of photographs taken on the 27th November 1988 at the Surfest '88 event held at Newcastle Beach, Australia.
The images were shot by Chris Patterson and others for Hannan Photography, who were engaged to record the event by Peach Advertising on behalf of the Surfest sponsors B.H.P. (The Broken Hill Proprietary Company Ltd).
The images were scanned from the original 35 mm colour negatives, at 3200 dpi using an Epson Perfection V700 Scanner. They comprised sheets labeled under the original numbering sequence of CN8764. (CN=Colour Negative)
The original negatives are held in Cultural Collections at the Auchmuty Library, University of Newcastle (Australia).

Complete accident. Was cleaning the scanner and happened to hit the button on the front which started the scanner, and it started to preview while I was wiping down the scanner bed. Took a screen cap of the scanner bed, and this is it....see next image for even better one
Tyler turned five. January 4, 2009 He has grown a lot. Our holidays were busy and very festive. I have a holga now but have not developed any film and do not have a scanner. .
Did this one a few years ago. Some cool things in here :) Was a school task for art, with things that you like/are into. Still almost 100% relevant.
Note if you want to :P
