Why is it called a "histogram?" I understand "histo-" to be a
combining form meaning organic tissue as in histography and
histogeny, but what does it mean in this context?

I will add my vote to those VueScan users who do *not* want it to become
an image editing application. I would rather do my tweaks in Photoshop.
But I do encourage Ed to continue development of features which enable
VueScan to save files with the best possible bits. I think a histogram

Dear David,
I've finally cleared some space in my schedule to spend some more time
with the SS4000+. The Silverfast disk still hasn't shown up here, BTW.
I spent a fair bit of t
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
sliders on the bottom like Photoshop.
When I asked for new features Histograms was ALWAYS on the top of the list.
Shit, Ed's getting off easy!!
I sent just that (an ecost 'invoice' printed from the web) along to
polaroid, so we'll see if they're acceptable.

Poor Ed. He can't win. Anything he does, no matter how many wanted it, some
others will express disappointment. Personally, I like a histogram, and
feel it helps me understand an image, and helps me improve it. And, on the
current 7.3 versions, if I let VS have the whole screen, I get a very ni

Hi,
I've been using vuescan with my Canoscan FS4000 Us and everything was
fine until when I installed version 7.3.3 wich recognizes my scanner as
a FS2720.
What happened, did Ed stop support for fs4000? Is this s little problem
with version 7.3.3 or is something wrong with my scanner?
Thank's an

I don't feel the need for a histogram in VueScan either. Setting the black and white

I have 2 problems with that question: (1) I suppose I don't know exactly
what you are trying to do(?) ... (2) a histogram is a visual tool, but it

Yes, I agree.

You are wrong. I just checked my Eastman Kodak registered trademarks
list from 1991 (the last time they sent me one). They do not own the
trademark E-6, (or at least didn't in 1991) but they do own the
Ektachrome trademark. Interesting they do own D-19, D-76, D-76R and
DK-50 and even 4-X as
Keep in mind that the dyes in E-6 based films are not colored when they
are coated on the film. They have to be transparent and very low
density when they are in an unprocessed form, so the light can go
through them. As it is, the silver halide components block enough
light, causing each sub
