I am only scanning one frame at a time so "image content" is whatever is in that

OK, in that case it's fine and you shouldn't have any problems.

Thanks for the asf.com web address. And I am guessing you are correct about
Nikon not wanting to pay the licensing fee.

BTW, something else just occurred to me! The three plug-ins ASF sells
are GEM, ROC and *SHO* (not DEE)!

Since ASF don't sell DEE separately, there was no reason to disable
it! That would seem to further confirm that the reason GEM and ROC are
disabled in NikonScan is simply due to licensing. Disgusting!

I absolutely loath it when companies do that and intentionally cripple
products for marketing reasons (like the aforementioned disabling of
mulitscanning on the LS-50).

I know the bean counters and marketroids are just trying to maximize
profits, but intentionally crippling devices is just despicable!
