Kodachrome has a strange colour palette, it's notoriously difficult to scan and it not due to the density of the slides. I gave up Velvia a long time ago, I mostly use Provia 100F with my 67 gear I find it provides a great palette and realistic saturation whilst retaining detail. -- Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://picasaweb.google.com/distudio/PESO http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~distudio//publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998 -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
