Hi Ken,
this won´t help you here, but in general if you shot slide to scan it then,
you might try out Provia in the future, while being at least as fine grained
as Velvia, it is less hard in its contrast and thus keeps more shadow
detail.

I feel the same as you about the price/performance-ratio of MF film
scanners. Did you use any other scanner for MF before Epson? Right now I'm

What I´d like to see is a place on the GUI where I can permanently see *and
correct* the name of the file, or the one being created on the next scan.
Could be in the title blue bar next to the Version number, or somewhere
else - I never know what file I am at...
A happy new year to everyone...

Does anyone knows if I need the update of Firmware Nikon Coolscan IV version
1.1, available on this site?
All what I have heard about the new Minoltas is that they do have a grain
problem - recently someone added a commentary about the new Elite II in a
german newsgroup, saying that he has got unacceptable grain in 35mm Scans.
There are similar complaints in the imaging- resource- Forum about

Will using ViewScan allow better control of the scanned image? Thanks,

Could someone explain to me in a few words how to work with a histogram when

Both Ed Hamrick and Ken Rockwell say that there is very little noise, users
said the same, why do you worry? Sanning with ICE is always *much* slower
than without, and with the plug-in scan times seem more than reasonable.
I received some informations by Minolta about the Multi Pro today (well,
I forgot if it was mentioned before: Does VueScan already support the new
Epson Perfection 2450?

you say that the Pola 120 "it is one of the best

does "only one shot at a time" mean that you will
have to cut all your neg strips? Or is it just that you can only SCAN one at a
