It reminds me of the Insight wars Polaroid was beaten up mercilessly for
not having histograms and not just any histogram, it had to have the little

When I asked for new features Histograms was ALWAYS on the top of the list.
Shit, Ed's getting off easy!!
My experience with the vast majority slides is if you want to get the
maximum shadow detail and sharpness you can clean and scan the slide faster
with a scanner using a diffuse light source than with a scanner that needs
multi-scanning to get maximum shadow detail and IR dust detection.

I have had several inquiries to the Sprintscan 4000 pricing in Canada. It
has be lowered significantly but not to the level here in the US. Here is a
link of one supplier which I think is representative.

decision.

The purpose of the new profile is that it should be more robust and give
cleaner (less noise) results when you have a very dark image and you are
trying to pull detail out of the shadows
I have put both Mac and PC versions of the ColorSlide Profile labeled 2b on
my ftp site as before. This newer profile restores the saturation in the
shadow area. Mac users should put this in the IQA profiles folder.

Polaroid has announced a $300 rebate on the Sprintscan 120 Plus. The coupon
will be posted on the web site soon and in the meantime I would be happy to
forward a copy, pdf file, to anyone needing it.
This rebate is for the Plus configuration only!!!

I have put on my ftp site a new pre-release color slide profile for the
Sprintscan 4000 4000 Plus and PolaColor Insight. This new profile greatly
improves performance in shadow area. It will show up as ColorSlide2 in the
Insight profile box.
Please let me know how you like it.
Forgot to say where it goes on PC's. If Insight is installed on your C
drive. As follows.
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Polaroid Imaging\Profiles
Sorry for the omission
