Re: filmscanners: VueScan Long Exposure Pass
Is the long exposure pass built in or is there an option? The
reason I ask is that Vuescan seems to take longer to scan an image
than the Epson Twain (Epson 1640). There is, however, far better
density range using Vuescan (color slides) and I do not get the
predominant posterization in greens that I do with the Epson
Twain. I also get much more depth when scanning black and white
negatives with Vuescan. I have not noticed any bleeding but will
look more closely. At first look, using Vuescan, the 1640 is
giving me far better results than with my previous 1200. I don't
mind the longer exposure time if that's what's making the
difference and I'd rather adjust any over saturation in Photoshop
than deal with the pale grayish-greens that I'm getting with the
Epson Twain.
