DxO Optics Pro V4.2 Reference Manual

DxO Optics Pro’s precise, calibrated corrections are based on unique algorithms derived from actual measurements made on real camera bodies and lenses. Thousands of test measurements are made on each body and lens combination, with every permutation of shooting parameters.

This is why the whole DxO Optics Pro system operates using what are called ‘Correction Modules’, each unique and specific to a particular body / lens combination; for this reason, you need to make sure you have the right module(s) for the bodies and/or lenses you use. All this means that DxO Optics Pro produces extremely accurate actual corrections of measured phenomena, instead of just subjective (and often impossibly time-consuming) manual approximations.

In addition, this new version 4 of the software also includes a number of corrections that are not camera-specific, so you can make the most of other images too, and some adjustments, going beyond purely correction, that you can perform manually for creative effect.

A simple workflow
The way the DxO Optics Pro workflow is organized is perhaps worth explaining briefly. You start by creating a new ‘project’, which you can name and save, and into which you will assemble the pictures you wish to process at this time. You can then click on the “Process Now” button to start processing the images with DxO automatic presets. Alternatively, you can work on preview images to define your own corrections or adjustments. And it’s worth underlining that your original image files are left untouched, they are never altered in any way, deleted, or overwritten, so your precious originals are 100% safe at all times!

What makes DxO Optics Pro even more powerful and ergonomic, is that some or all of your chosen settings can be saved as one or more ‘presets’ that can be applied across a whole series of images — but still leaving you the possibility of making further manual adjustments too, of course! Even without the use of any manual settings at all, DxO Optics Pro can process your images fully automatically, for guaranteed improved results every time!

Eclair 16mm ACL Camera Manual

Low profile and portability not only gives the ECLAIR ACL camera an elegant appearance, but it is a practical feature which enables the cameraman to take pictures while in a very confined space. The ACL rests low on the shoulder; in fact wherever there is headroom there is space for him to operate his camera. Examples:- seated in a moving car next to or behind the driver; in a cockpit; in a bunker; up a tree; or in any confined space where a camera is called for. The ACL is unobtrusive.

Total weight is important where there is plenty of action and mobility is the key word. The ACL with its 60m (200 ft) magazine, fully loaded, weighs 3.6 kg (8 lbs). With all its ancillaries, this camera presents no problem when climbing any structure or following any action. The ACL is truly a professional camera.

A self-blimped quiet running camera permits candid shots and unselfconscious action. The moving parts in the ACL have been kept to a minimum; it’s wedge-shaped claw slides quietly into the film perforation; it’s plane shutter and oscillating mirror reduce the whir of rotating mirror shutters; the overall noise level is better than 32 dB at 1 m (3 ft).

A crystal controlled brushless motor has been specially designed for the ACL. Incorporated in this motor are some of the features developed for spaceflight - miniaturised control, high efficiency, freedom from static etc. It is based on The Hall Effect; runs silently, draws only 0.8 A from the small rechargeable battery. No hash is added to the radio microphone signals. The speed is accurately regulated to 24 or 25 frames per second by crystal control.

Snap-on magazines, made famous throughout their range of cameras, afford the film maker the advantages of a 3 second effective re-load time and the ability to change quickly to different film stocks by pre-loading magazines. The cameraman has the choice of 60m (200 ft) core loads, standard 30m (100 ft) or 60m (200 ft) daylight loading spools.

6 A rig moves menu provides a number of movement options for camera rigs with either pan or pan and tilt servos. These include panning with occasional vertical lookdowns as well as three and four level panning.
7 There is a batch mode which lets you take pictures in groups - like panoramas with resting periods in between. And there’s a series mode which may help your camera to take bracketed exposures – i.e. a series of 3 pictures between every move. Alternatively it can hold down (delay) finger shutters to take burst or bracketed shots.
8 There is also a kap session menu so that you can achieve multiple objectives whilst your camera is in the air. Or just use it to stop pictures and tilt upwards for landing.

Bipolar/Monopolar Temperature Controller Model TC-202A User’s Manual

The Bipolar/Monopolar Temperature Controller (Model TC-202A) is designed to be used with several micro-incubators supplied by Harvard Apparatus Inc.These models include the Open Perfusion Micro-Incubator (Model PDMI-2), Patch Slice Micro-Incubator (Model PSMI),Leiden Static Micro-Incubator (Model LU-CB1) Leiden Closed Perfusion Micro-Incubator (Model LU-CPC-CEH) and Brain/Tissue Slice System (Model BSC-BU).

A micro-incubation system from Harvard Apparatus consists of the Temperature Controller (TC-202A),a micro-incubator (one of the above) of choice,a 35 mm plastic Petri dish or reusable cover slip dish (LU-CSD, MSC-TD or MSC-PTD) and an associated pumping system.Such a system allows complete environmental conditioning along with excellent micro-mechanical access for electrodes or micropipettes, all with optimum optical access.

A proportional temperature controller is basically a source of electric current whose magnitude is determined by comparing a desired target temperature with its current value. The TC-202A’s output is proportional to the difference in temperature between the desired and the current value. This type of system avoids the electrical noise of suddenly turning current on and off, unlike less expensive controllers. When using the TC-202A in the Biphasic mode, the current will spontaneously reverse direction when the current temperature is too high; in short,it can also cool when used with Peltier elements.(PDMI-2/PSMI)

FinishLynx Total Race Management Macintosh Version Owner’s Manual

This manual is provided first and foremost to help you set up, install, and run FinishLynx so that it will become as familiar and easy to use as your computer. However, in no time at all you will become an expert FinishLynx operator, and we at Lynx System Developers, Inc. bet that you will be intrigued to learn what goes on “behind the screen” to make this exciting new technology work. Therefore we hope that the following pages will not only help you operate FinishLynx to its fullest capacity, making your job of producing accurate race results easier and faster than you ever thought possible; but we hope that they will also help to satisfy your curiosity about some of the concepts and theory behind digital imaging for fully automatic timing. Keep in mind that there is a lot of information in the following pages: we hope that you return to this reference manual again and again, rather than trying to absorb everything in one sitting.

A FinishLynx system always has a minimum of three pieces of equipment which are linked together: a digital camera, a FinishLynx timing unit, and a computer. FinishLynx cameras were specifically designed for this application. They scan and store images of a very important–and very narrow–piece of real-estate: the finish line. These single-pixel wide slices of image are assembled and temporarily stored by the FinishLynx precision timing unit before they are passed to the computer for analysis. FinishLynx allows you to display an image of the finish line of any type of race on your computer monitor and calculate race results in as little as 15 seconds. The picture is similar to that of a roll film camera, although instead of being printed on film, the image is digitized inside the camera and fed directly into your computer. The times of the finishers can be printed or immediately integrated with meet management software such as Track-on-a-Mac, Apple Raceberry Jam, or Meet Manager to make compiling meet results almost effortless. Pictures and results can be easily stored on your hard disk for later retrieval. Of course, FinishLynx meets all the requirements of a Fully Automatic Timer (F.A.T.) for the IAAF, NCAA, and USATF as well as many other national and international athletic organizations.

PriorLux - PriorLab Manual W2968 Issue B

The PriorLab and PriorLux upright compound microscopes are high quality instruments equipped with high resolution, chromatically corrected optics for excellent image quality. The robust construction and hard wearing materials ensure long lasting and trouble free operation. The instrument can be used with a number of accessories allowing brightfield, dark ground, phase contrast and polarising contrast observations. For documentation, both instruments are available with a trinocular head which permits mounting of a video or digital camera system.

The PriorLab / PriorLux is shipped in protective bags within a pre-formed container. Each component should be carefully unpacked and checked, cutting rather than tearing the plastic bags. The head (binocular or trinocular) should be fitted to the dovetail on top of the stand and locked in place with the head locking screw. The eyepieces then just drop into the eyepiece tubes at the front of the head, these should be pushed in as far as they will go. Remove each objective lens from its protective “pot” and screw into the free positions on the nosepiece. Move the stage and the condenser carrier to the highest position and insert the condenser from underneath with the diaphragm control facing to the front. This is locked in position with the clamping screw, which is fitted from the side.

Movable Top Plate (MTP) User Manual

You are now the owner of a Scientifica Movable Top Plate (MTP). Once set up the MTP will provide you with a stable platform from which to carry out your experiments.
Remember:
To get the best performance out of your platform you must set it up correctly. Please follow the steps in this manual to ensure the platform is set up in accordance with manufacturers guidelines.
Special shipping brackets are provided for your MTP to prevent damage during shipment.
Step 1.
Remove the shipping brackets using the Hex Key provided.
Step 2.
Setting the correct length of your platform leg.
It is absolutely essential that you ensure the legs are all the same height. Any differences in leg length will reduce the smoothness of the stage motion and damage the bearings.
A digital vernier caliper has been provided to make this process easy.
It is important to ensure that the platform height is set to correct focal point of your microscope.
(This information should be supplied by your microscope Manufacturer – Olympus, Zeiss, Leica, Nikon). Once you have decided on the correct height, use the digital calipers to ensue that all four of the MTP legs are the same height. This can be checked by measuring the gap between the top of the locking ring to underside of the top of leg.

ZenithStar 80 Instruction Manual

This simple step-by-step instruction manual is designed to provide you with a better understanding of how to use your new telescope. It will also guide you through how to maintain the ZenithStar 80 and operate it at its utmost capabilities. Please carefully familiarize yourself with your telescope parts and its functions before operation.

During daytime usage and night time observation, depending on your range of application, you have many choices for precision eyepieces with different magnifications.

Your new ZenithStar 80 is exceptionally suitable for nebulae, clusters, large galaxies and comets: we therefore suggest you use low power, wide-angle eyepieces for best results. Viewing the moon and planets at up to 120x (power) is quite impressive too at stable seeing. You can easily locate an object in its surrounding with lower magnification, and then gradually zoom-in with higher power eyepieces for maximum close-up and vivid details.

The largest field of view is covered by 12x low power wide-angle eyepieces. Do not exceed the suggested maximum magnification of 120x as the seeing might deteriorate so that nothing is gained in terms of perceiving more and better details. To calculate the magnification of your telescope, divide the telescope focal length in mm (480) by the eyepiece focal length. For example, a 25 mm focal length eyepiece will produce 480/25 = 19x.

Be sure to operate with a stable tripod. Other options include German equatorial mounts, which are used by most amateur astronomers for precise tracking stability. Optional WO mounting rings and plates, and 2″ diagonal mirror or erecting prism are highly recommended for high-quality images. Though this telescope is not specifically designed for astrophotography it can yield very good results when used together with the necessary equipment. Please refer to our Accessories Chart on page 03 for more details on the photo equipment you need.

JTS-Rotator SPH Manual

JTS-Rotator SPH, produced by Esaypano, is designed for professional shooting of high quality image, including rotator and bracket. JTS-Rotator allows photographer to take sequential constant-angle shots around a single axis with the nodal point of camera and lens in line with the center of panoramic rotation. JTS-Rotator has several advantages in taking pictures:
Supports top and bottom images shooting;
Supports adjusting vertically and horizontally, fore-and-aft adjusting as well; Easy to carry about, with total weight of less than 1.5kg; Wear well again abrasion, made of alloyed material together with strong screws and accurate calibration; Not necessary to repeat calibration setup after you have made correct alignment of optical axis and nodal point

Structure of Rotator
Three jamming screws allow photographer to fix and rotate the rotator more easily with one for locking completely and other two for horizontal every 45 and 60 degree rotating respectively. A slight “click” will help photographer to know how many degree you have rotated without the need to look at the calibration while taking photos from different angles horizontally.

For example, if you don’t need to shoot image from different angles horizontally, please fix the screw “LOCK” only with other two loosening; if you want to get full circular or full frame image, you may need to tighten 60-degree jamming screw and loose the other two, one “click” saying 60 degree while two for 120 degree and three 180 degree; if you want to shoot drum image, 45-degree jamming screw will help you in the same way as 60-degree jamming screw.

The screw on the top of the rotator is used to fix the bracket, which is an indispensable part of JTS-Rotator SPH, and which is a critical part in shooting image successfully.

ExpoCap Instructions Custom White Balance Aid

Before using your new ExpoCap Custom White Balance Aid, please refer to your camera manual for specific instructions on how to set a custom white balance.

IMPORTANT: Do not point your camera directly at the sun without the ExpoCap installed. Direct sunlight may damage or destroy your camera’s image sensor.

Custom White Balance (WB)
Setting a custom white balance on your digital camera will help you get better color under many difficult lighting conditions. Using the ExpoCap to help set the custom white balance is simply the quickest and easiest way to help your camera capture richer, more beautiful colors.

Installation
Squeeze the two buttons on the exterior of the filter ring and insert the ExpoCap into the threaded recess in front of your camera lens. To remove the ExpoCap, simply reverse this action.

Stacking ExpoCap With Other Filters
The ExpoCap can be installed and used as intended over other camera filters, such as Skylight or Polarizing filters. Note that any color characteristics introduced by filters stacked with the ExpoCap during the custom white balance procedure will be neutralized in the process. If color correction from a filter is desired, then the custom white balance must be taken without the desired filter in place.

Proper Exposure
It is essential to obtain a proper exposure while setting a custom WB. Failure to do so may result in the inability to set a correct balance. The most convenient way to obtain a proper exposure through the ExpoCap is to use an automatic exposure (AE) setting such as the “P” “S” or “A” modes.

How to Set a Custom WB Using ExpoCap
Install the ExpoCap on the end of the lens. Set your camera to an AE mode, set your focus to manual (your camera may not respond in auto focus with the disc installed), then press the shutter release button. Select or save this setting or the resulting image as the reference for your custom white balance. You must set a different custom white balance for each change in lighting.

Where to Aim the Camera
The best results are obtained by standing near, or in similar lighting as your subject and pointing the camera back towards the position from which you will take the picture. In other words, the same color of light falling on your subject must also strike the front surface of the ExpoDisc. See the following examples for tips in some common lighting conditions.
Artificial Light
1. Single Light Source. Aim the camera towards the light source.
2. Dual Light Source. Aim the camera midway between the lights

Multi-Sensor Core Logger Manual

This introduction presents an overview of the capabilities and features of the Multi-Sensor Core Logger (MSCL). Itdescribes the major features of the logging systems and outlines variations that occur between different generations of logging systems. The organisation and use of this manual are described, notational conventions safety symbols and abbreviations are explained.

The Multi-Sensor Core Logger (MSCL)
The Geotek Multi-Sensor Core logger has been built for a range of users since 1989. During that time the logging system has inevitably evolved with significant improvements being made to the simplicity of the mechanical arrangements, the effectiveness of the sensors and in particular with the sophistication of the software. Consequently there are a number of slightly different systems in use. Despite this natural evolution Geotek has been conscious of the need to update older systems so that important new features can be incorporated. This is particularly true with the software, which has been designed to function on all systems with only minor modifications to the electronics and hardware. If you find features described in this manual that do not seem to apply to your system then contact Geotek directly for an assessment of the upgrade potential.

Types of Logging Systems
Single Section - Whole Cores - Core Boat
Early versions of the logger moved the core sections through the sensor systems using a core boat in which each whole core section was placed. Each core section was logged individually. Data files were subsequently manually concatenated by the user within a spreadsheet.

Single Section - Whole Cores - Core Pusher - Long Belt
Later versions of the logger did not have a core boat. They moved individual whole core sections through the sensor systems by using a core pusher to push individual core sections (lying on plastic rails) through the system. This was achieved using a long belt that went around the complete length of the track, through the sensor systems and was attached to the core pusher.

Multiple Sections - Whole Cores - Core Pusher - Short Belt
Recent versions of the logger have maintained the core pusher principle but have a short belt which allows the pusher only to move along the right hand section. Cores are passed through the complete sensor array by butting adjacent cores together. In this way a continuous core logging process is achieved with continuous data sets for a complete core.

Multiple Sections - Split Cores - Core Pusher - Short Belt or Ball-screw
The most versatile logging system is now the split core logging system that is floor mounted and measures p-wave Velocity and Gamma Density either horizontally through whole cores or vertically through whole or split cores. It features a moving vertical slide onto which is mounted the upper p-wave transducer (either the older type that required water coupling or the new Acoustic Rolling Contact (ARC) type). This automated vertical slide enables the measurements to be performed on horizontally split cores as well as whole rounds. With this system there is a large degree of flexibility that enables other sensor systems to be attached.

Multiple Wavelength Multiviewer Operation Manual

The Multiviewer is a complete system for multispectral imaging. It allows two images to be collected simultaneously using Princeton Instruments CCD or ICCD cameras. It features high throughput dichroic optics and UV wavelength operation as an option. Princeton Instruments multiple wavelength Multiviewer system offers the following features:
• One image projected in dual wavelengths simultaneously on a single CCD or ICCD
• No filter wheel delays and no shot-to-shot variation
• No parallax. All images are taken from the same perspective
• UV operation to 200 nm (optional)
• High throughput dichroic optics
• Low stray light

Performance Considerations
The Multiviewer design allows an image to be acquired at two different wavelengths simultaneously. With a gated intensified camera, both images can be acquired in as little as 5 nanoseconds. This means that even transient events can now be recorded at multiple wavelengths. This eliminates problems of shot-to-shot variability that occur when recording a transient event at multiple wavelengths by recording successive occurrences. With a Multiviewer, the complete multispectral image is acquired in a single shot.

Even for slowly moving subjects, simultaneous imaging provides an advantage. While the morphology of a subject may not change very quickly, the intensity at an individual pixel can change abruptly due to slow movement of a sharp edge across the pixel. Ratio images created from successive frames taken at different wavelengths often contain artifacts due to this effect. Simultaneous dual-wavelength imaging eliminates this ambiguity.

Whether a system is designed for operation on transient or slowly changing subjects, the elimination of moving filter systems improves overall system reliability. Since the Multiviewer has no moving parts, the reliability is much higher. The passive design also requires no computer control and has no power requirements.

Seitz VR Drive Panorama Calculator 6.6 Operation Manual

The information in this operator’s manual is related to the following two types of panorama calculators: “MultiRow” and “Sperical Panorama”. The only limitations are the format of a single picture and it should be a rectangle (no fisheye lenses) and for spherical panoramas the single photographs should be taken in portrait format.

Nowadays digital photo technique allows the creation of panorama photographs with a previously unknown resolution. I think the first photographer breaking the Gigabyte boundary was Max Lion with his MultiRow panorama from the Bryce Canyon taken in 2003. When taking into account a professional SRL camera, e.g. the Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III with its 21 Mega pixels, the MultiRow technique opens up new possibilities.

A panorama photograph whether it is a MultiRow or a Spherical Panorama must be taken on a fixed position not to be confused with mosaic e.g. Satellite photographs which are taken from different positions.
Also Spherical Panoramas are delighting the professional promotion sector (real estate properties and tourism market) and are also very popular in the semi professional community.
As you assume, to take MultiRow and Spherical panoramas, it will require a minimal knowledge to calculate the relevant parameters for a specific equipment combination as:
- Sensor size (depending on the camera model used)
- Focal length of the lens used
- Horizontal/vertical step size between two pictures
- Horizontal/vertical overlap between two pictures
- Numbers of columns and rows
- Camera format (portrait / landscape)
To get good results, of course appropriate equipment, not necessarily expensive, is a requirement.
The suggested panorama calculator should support photographers in the preparation phase before taking the pictures. In chapter 2 and 3 the functionality and the use of the panorama calculator will be explained in more detail.

Wi-Pics Operations Manual

Wi-Pics TM was designed with the philosophy that photographers should be free to devote their time and attention to capturing great images, without being disk-jockeys or couriers for flash memory cards. Wi-Pics TM replaces a photographer’s CompactFlash™ storage card during digital image capture.

After Wi-Pics TM has been powered-on, it emulates the behavior of a typical CompactFlash™ memory card. Image files recorded by the camera are stored on an internal hard disk drive, or on supplemental CompactFlash™ storage cards inserted into the Wi-Pics TM unit by the user. When the software in Wi-Pics TM detects the recording of an image by the camera, the image can be transmitted to a remote workstation or server via the unit’s wireless or wired network interfaces.

Wi-Pics™ is a patent-pending network appliance designed to allow any Type II CompactFlash TM compatible digital camera to transmit images via wireless and wired networks. Use of Wi-Pics™ requires no modification of camera hardware or firmware, and does not impact camera buffer performance or battery life. What makes Wi-Pics unique from other wireless options is its data association.

Data association is the ability to rename files with critical search data at the moment of capture and to place that data into the EXIF header of a JPEG file. Wi-Pics™ solves the problem of moving images from Point A to Point B, while adding the capability to easily search and retrieve images directly after they are captured.

Wi-Pics™ provides photographers with connectivity to transfer their images instantly and automatically to a remote server or workstation, and simultaneously provides redundant backup image storage.

Once the main supply is on, adjust the selector on the base of the scope (1.2) to either “DIA” for brightfield microscopy or “EPI” for fluorescence microscopy. This selector toggles the white light source on and off.
• Should you desire fluorescence excitation, you will need to turn on the mercury light source. It is imperative that the mercury source is used for duration of at least 15minutes. Likewise, it is also imperative that the mercury source not be switched on after prior use for at least 30 minutes.
• In order to illuminate the mercury light source, turn on the power supply (1.3). Next, in order to ignite the bulb, press and hold the “ignition” button (1.4). Once the bulb is properly ignited, the “ready” light will illuminate.

Shutdown Procedure
• After properly restarting the computer system as discussed in the “Computer Login/Image Acquisition Instructions,” attention must be paid to the microscope.
• Begin by returning all system on the scope to their “off” positions. This includes moving the filter slider (2.1) left to the “DIA” position. Next make sure the shutter (2.2) is pulled out from the scope and blocking the light path. Lastly, move the “eyepiece/camera” selector (2.3) inward towards the scope to “eyepiece” position.

Steps for scanning slides with the Nikon LS-1000 scanner

1. Gently insert your slide into the scanner slot. Do not force the slide into the scanner, otherwise the scanning mechanisms may be damaged. Also, never pull out a slide during a scan. Wait until the scan is finished and gently pull the slide out.
2. Launch Photoshop.
3. Select File>Import>Nikon Scan. The Nikon scanning software interface displays.
4. From the Color pull-down menu, choose either color positive or black-and-white positive, based on your slide.
5. In the Output Resolution field, type the amount of resolution you would like the final scan to have. Usually it is best to start with a high resolution such as 300 dpi, and then the resolution can be reduced later if needed. The standard resolution for images that will be viewed digitally is 72 dpi; the resolution for images that are intended to be printed is based on the printer and the quality you desire. Remember that higher resolutions correspond to larger file sizes!
6. Click the Preview button. An image of your slide displays. Don’t worry if the image is scanned in the wrong direction; you can rotate the image in Photoshop later.
7. Select the area to be included in the final scan. To do this, hold down the mouse and drag diagonally across the area of the image to be included in the final scan. A box with handles on the sides and corners appears, indicating what area of your image will be included in the final scan. Adjust if needed.
8. Click the Scan button. The scan is performed and the image is placed in a Photoshop file.
9. Select File>Save. Select the desired destination for your image and give it a title. Click the Save button.
10. At this point, the image can be rotated and improved in Photoshop using various filters, cropping commands, and level adjustments.
11. To remove your slide, return to the Nikon scanning software by selecting File>Import>Nikon Scan while you are in Photoshop. When the Nikon interface displays, click the Eject button (the button shown below) and your slide is ejected.

Using The Nikon CoolPix 995 For Microscopic Photography

The document will serve as a guide for setting up the Nikon 995 camera for microscopic photography.
Attaching the Camera to the Microscope
1. Remove the right eyepiece from the microscope by loosening the small
Allen screw located around the bottom ring of the eyepiece using the supplied Allen wrench. Note: turning the small Allen screw counterclockwise loosens it and turning it clockwise tightens it. When replacing the eyepiece do not overly tighten the Allen screw. Only a small amount of pressure is required to secure the eyepiece to the microscope.
2. Attach the eyepiece adapter to the camera by screwing (in a clockwise direction) it to the threads located around the camera lens. Be careful not to strip the threads. The adapter should turn easily onto the threads. You can make sure the threads are aligned properly by turning the adaptor in a counter clockwise direction about ½ of a rotation while resting it against the lens threads. You will feel the adapter align to center indicating that you can begin turning in a clockwise rotation to screw it to the lens.
3. Once the adaptor is attached to the camera, slide the barrel of the adaptor into the eyepiece tube to mount the camera on the microscope.
a. You may tighten the Allen screw to secure the camera so that the field of view is upright and the camera is aligned at a right angle to the eye tube.

Camera Settings (these are the settings that have given me the best results)
1. Turn the camera on by turning the mode-dial located to the right of the top LCD panel to M for manual.
2. Select the focus as close-up by pressing the focus mode button, labeled M-Focus, until a flower icon appears in the monitor. Use the zoom range control to zoom in until the flower icon turns yellow. This will place the camera in macro mode and allow for the sharpest focus.
3. Use the Mode button located on top of the camera in conjunction with the command dial to set the camera to Auto-Aperture (A) mode. An A in the bottom left of the monitor indicates that you are in aperture mode. Note that it will cycle between P, S and A. The illustration above shows the P setting. You will also see an A appear in the Control Panel as illustrated below.

The Image Mechanics Fluid Mount Scanner tray for the Nilkon Super Coolscan 8000/9000

Our patented Fluid Mount Tray is designed to improve the quality of scans available from a Nikon™ 8000 and 9000 scanners. Made from a genuine Nikon scanner tray to ensure perfect operation, it allows you to fluid mount your film (from 8mm to 2 1/4 and everything in between) for the best possible scans.

Note: While our product is carefully crafted to prevent damage to your scanner, the scanner is not intended for use with fluid mounting systems. Use of this product may void the warranty of your scanner. Image Mechanics and Freestyle makes no warranties against damage to your scanner. USE THIS PRODUCT AT YOUR OWN RISK. Please test the seal of your tray by putting it on dry newspaper and filling it below the top of the tray with WATER (ONLY) overnight. DO NOT USE KAMI OR OTHER SOLVENTS TO TEST THE SEAL OF THE TRAY. If the tray leaks through any of the doublesealed seams, Image Mechanics and Freestyle will replace it free of charge.

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
Fluid Mounting:
1) Clean the glass with a non-ammonia glass cleaner such as Sprayway Glass Cleaner using your Webril lint-free wipe. Ammonia is not archival and not recommended around any photographic material. Do not use any cleaner, including ammonia, that might damage the silicone adhesive used to secure the glass plate in the film holder (such as nail polish remover, lighter fluid, etc.) .
2) Thoroughly dry the entire film holder using compressed air or a lint-free cloth. Also use the compressed air to remove any surface particles from the top and the bottom of the glass.
3) Make sure you have the proper side of the tray up first. Place a few drops of Kami fluid where you intend to place the film on the tray. Use the compressed air to remove the particles from the film itself on both sides and then place the film on the fluid. Keep the film square to and centered between the side lines. Also, the scanner will scan film easier when the film is closer to the front of the tray (the end which is inserted into the scanner). For example, with 6X9 cm film only the two images closest to the front can be easily scanned. Note that the masked side lines on the scanner glass are intended to indicate the APPROXIMATE maximum boundary of the scan area. For best results, when mounting film to the glass plate of the scanner you should keep your film centered between the aid lines and parallel to the side line. Note that the side lines are intended as guides only and may be slightly off-center, or slightly off “true”. Also, there needs to be just a few drops of fluid, enough to make its way under the film. Do not soak the tray in fluid, it wastes fluid and can damage the scanner.
