VueScan Brightness (was:Re: filmscanners: Provia 400F - Actually a pretty fine film! It scans well too)

Have somebody made himself comfortable enough with new brightness setting?
Properly set, it works fine and doesn't wash colours, but it first _should
be_ properly set!
>From my recent experience with LS-30, it really requires 1.3-1.5 to
avoid black shadows in properly exposed slides. 1.0 may do excellent
work for some negatives but still be too dark for other batches.
So, sometimes I find myself fighting with mills..
