This is true, Ed. The preview does sometimes look very different (but the
end results are worth it).

I've been scanning some airshow photos and getting the right exposure out of
vuescan has been extremely difficult. The day was very overcast, and
there's a lot of photos where most of the frame is clouds with some very
small aircraft. Vuescan seems to be using an autoexposure algorithm similar

Any suggestions? ISTM the only option is to do a preview which includes the
film mask, then switch to manual exposure, and keep that setting for the
rest of the film (or at least the strip).
Yes, this is exactly what

The most frustrating thing is that the preview image
looks fine, but I can't find a setting which makes
the final image look anything like the preview.

It could be the white balance setting for white% ... try a higher setting

The graininess you end up with is a mystery to me, though.

Similar to what you've tried, check the Advanced Workflow
Suggestions in the Help file to determine the fixed
exposure setting for the film - maybe that will help.
Looks like that's effectively what I've done by including
part of the mask.
I assume you've already tried the None

Cool. Maybe my recent photos are unusual because most people don't spend
their time photographing lots of planes in bright sky, but I wanted to raise
it in the group so others were aware
