Minolta 5400 - original HDRi

Postby BOBRAPP » Fri Jul 17, 2009 9:20 pm

Will the Minolta 5400 be added to the list of scanners supported by HDRi?

Thanks,
Bob Rapp

Dear Bob,
we would love to offer HDRi with the Minolta, however the Minolta drivers do not allow us to do so !
We are currently discussing if we should write our own drivers to do so but this is nothing fo the short term.

Sorry for that,

Nils Heidorn

I realize that the 5400 is no longer available but it is a very capable scanner. The thought of having SRDi and HDRi available is exciting - as I have 1000s of Kodachromes to scan. I really like what you are up to as I figured that Silverfast could not be improved. Of note, I am running the 5400 software on a Vista-64 system.

Thanks for your reply,
Cheers,
Bob Rapp
