I don't believe that is a result of VueScan, per se. I have not had that sort
of result scanning KR with VS on my Canon
FS4000 scanner. Whether it is your scanner, perhaps in some combination with VS
and its settings, I don't know, but it
is not VS alone.
You were having lots of trouble with KR and SilverFast, too, although as much
or more color troubles as funny textures.
Perhaps AG or CH, our resident Nikon scanner experts (even though CH's scanner
is dead now) have some insights in to
possible causes? The Nikons, with their more coherent light source do have a
reputation of exacerbating dust, scratches
and grain, but this seems extreme to me. If you feel like sending an outtake or
two my way, I could see how they scan on
a quite different scanner.
We had Canadian friends visiting a few weeks ago. He is something of an über
techie, with a great deal of photo, audio
and video gear, including several scanners of various sorts. When he got home,
he found an FS4000, and tells me it's the
best of his bunch for IQ.
I got to play briefly with his D800 with Canon 28-300 IS lens. Unfortunately,
I'd have to work out some in order to be
able to use that combo. Fortunately, I have my E-M5. :-)

Much better, at least for the web size we see. Much clearer, slightly better
color and none of the irritating
texture/noise/grain/whatever troubles. Quite nice now.
