VS has a problem scanning large body of solid color and always produces noisy pattern.

On your Nik*n, not on my Can*n. I've never had a pattern of any kind on slide or negative. I don't know if effects like this are equipment specific, operating environment sensitive or what, but it seems to me to be important to give specific details when commenting on cross-hardware platform software performance. A flat statement that like this may mislead others. Would you like someone to try one of your compilers on a hardware platform or in a software environment where it doesn't run properly, then make generic posts about its failings without specifying the conditions under which it was tested?

Fair enough, although when I relate the experience on comp.periph.scanners, at least one other person says they have the same problem.

As for conditions, it is on a LS-4000, W2K SPII, dual processors PIII 866MHz. I have problems with "solid" black and blue. Have not tested in exhaustively on other colors. I just use NS when I have a scan that has those characteristics. Actually, generally I use NS anyway. This happens on slides and negs. Did not keep track of all the film types, but Provia100F and Kodak 400 definitely have problems.

Your mileage may vary :-)
