It's always worked this way, but hopefully having the two options back in the user interface will reduce the number of e-mails I get about this. When you originally removed this feature you put it into a context of having problems with it causing problems with color neutrality. (1) Did you fix this? and ... (2) How does Vuescan deal with color neutrality in general? That is, assuming you are working with the 3 RGB channels, the same brightness applied to all three should alter hue. If you apply the same contrast scaler to all three it should alter saturation (and hue). Similarly, apply the same gamma to all three channels should cause similar problems. Presumably, these operations could be independently be applied to all three channels if primarily applied(for example) to 'L' in Lab space, or 'L' in HSL space(?) You have never mentioned using intermediate color spaces ... without exposing Vuescan secrets, can you enlighten us? shAf :o)
RE: filmscanners: VueScan 7.1.26 Available
I don't think I understand the expoure lock function. That is, you've removed any ability to control the exposure, except to lock it(?) I was hoping you had added panoramic functionality in the following way: lock the exposure by (1) changing it over to manual and fixed. In addition you would modifify color controls tab by adding a lock color control. This would allow you to (1) determine exposure with a representative frame (... change to manual exposure ...), (2) get the color right with the representative frame ... and lock color calculations (which in effect disables every consideration except to apply the result to following frames). shAf :o)

Yes, this is how it works. You scan the first frame of the panorama, set Device|Lock exposure, then scan the rest of the frames of the panorama. I can't think of any way to make this simpler, but I'm open to suggestions. Regards, Ed Hamrick

I just released VueScan 7.1.26 for Windows, Mac OS 8/9/X and Linux. It can be downloaded from: http://www.hamrick.com/vsm.html What's new in version 7.1.26 * Added Color|Image brightness option * Added Device|Lock exposure option (for panoramas) * Added support for Device|Frame offset (mm) on FS4000 when using strip film carrier (for panoramas when using carrier with plastic bars cut away) * Fixed problem with Minolta scanners connected using Firewire-SCSI converter Regards, Ed Hamrick

You won't have to re-enter the registration number and you definitely don't need a new one. Just replace the vuescan.ini after the new version is installed.

Just delete the folder with the previous version and install the new - your registration will remain automatically.

The installation process overwrites the executable, and you don't need to worry about the serial number - I think it's stored in the registry or something. The upgrade is simple, fast and clean. Paul

With the brightness add back does the gamma work the same as version 7.1.25 where it worked by a multiplier with gamma and brightness or are gamma and brightness now two distinct operations.
Re: filmscanners: Re: filmscanners: VueScan 7.1.26 Available
You don't even need to back-up and replace the vuescan.ini - it doesn't contain the program registration. The benefit of backing it up and then replacing the new vuescan.ini is to save your settings for default folder, color tab settings, etc. Maris - Original Message - From: Rob Geraghty [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 30, 2001 5:33 PM Subject: filmscanners: Re: filmscanners: VueScan 7.1.26 Available | ken wrote: | Will it upgrade the existing version on my computer?
