You can set the dropper to average a 3x3 pixel area and also a 5x5 area.

I would like to start using Vuescan with my Nikon LS30. However, when I
try to scan a negative, the image comes out washed out. Scanning the
same image with NikonScan 2.5, the colors look fine. Anyone know what
I'm doing wrong?
Thanks!

But if that's the only area that could be described as white, what *should*

I don't think you're doing anything wrong. Vuescan
I prefer to
fine-tune color, contrast and everything else in post-scan processing in
Photopaint or Photoshop or PSP or whatever your favorite program is.
Thanks Maris - is their any benefit to be had by doing things this way as
opposed to doing it up-front? Other than , I suppose , when

In general I agree with that and especially appreciate the control that NS
gives me.
