I don't know what Vuescan can do. But I have used my "little" Canon camera to get a digital copy of hundreds of slides and many dozens of negatives. I use the GIMP to do the color correction and "de-negative". The process requires manual tweaking, so it can be a bit slow - but the GIMP is available for no cost and it does any other image editing I need done. For me, a critical part of the process is tagging the resulting images. JPEG file format supports EXIF and XMP tags. This is the electronic equivalent of writing on the back of the print. I read on an earlier post you (I think...) mentioned using an LED light source. That may not work well since white LEDs produce light by exciting phosphors - and so the light spectrum is usually not continuous like an incandescent. _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
