HI, Martin!
I"d try it with all the auto settings first. I use what amounts to a
default configuration of Vuescan with my Scan Multi II and it works great on
all reasonably well exposed images, both positive and negative, color and
monochrome.
Oh, yes, I do this on a PC, but Ed Hamrick seems to know what he's doing, so
I think it should work right on a Mac as well.
I have some grossly underexposed slides that have required some tweaking,
but try the defaults first to get the hang of Vuescan. That's my advise!
;-)
Hope this helps!

Subject: filmscanners: Washed out sky/Vuescan
I have a trial version that I'm using with a just purchased Sprintscan
4000,and want to be sure I can get the results I want before I buy it. I
find the instructions very confusing. My difficulty is that the colors seem
somewhat washed out, especially blue sky. I'm using a Mac and scanning
slides. I'm not sure what my color settings should be, but I've set it on:
White Balance
Auto Blackpoint on
Black Point 0
White Point 0.5
Color Space Adobe RGB
Gamma 1.8
Image Brightness 1
I've tried it both with and without Auto Mask
Would appreciate suggestions
Martin
