The COOLSCAN IV ED frees photographers from time-consuming film management such as sorting, arranging and storing of film, and offers easy access to the exciting world of digital images. For the film scanner novice, the new COOLSCAN IV ED acts as a "film's digital bridge", enabling scanning of higher quality than that of a flatbed scanner capable of "transillumination". It can even restore faded or orange-tinged discoloured negative film to true, brilliant colour, previously a difficult process for beginners.

The COOLSCAN IV ED's superior image quality is supported by an advanced SCANNER NIKKOR ED lens with reduced chromatic aberration and minimized image distortion, newly developed custom CCD for clear resolution, and a new scene analysis function featuring intelligent tone and colour auto-correction. In addition, gentler-on-film LED illumination ensures consistently accurate colour reproduction.

Furthermore, the new digital image correction function Digital ICE3TM (cubed)* resolves defects such as film surface dust and scratches, faded colour, mold and grain, that cannot be corrected with ordinary scanners. Digital ICE3TM comprises Digital ICETM (Image Correction & Enhancement), Digital ROC TM (Reconstruction of Colours), and Digital GEMTM (Grain Equalization & Management). For easy connection with a computer, commonly used USB interface is adopted.
