Maris...many, many thanks! I have paid. I downloaded and installed
VueScan. My first efforts produced no response from my Microtek SlimScan
C6 (USB) scanner...but I may be missing a step. I rebooted, but no
change. I am headed out of town, so I will not get an opportunity to work
with it again until Monday.
I changed to text mode. If I still need to make another change, please be
sure and mention this to me.
I made many "C" type prints that last couple of days. I can see many
benefits in making the adjustments visually via the computer monitor. I am
looking forward to moving with dispatch to master all aspects of film
scanning and digicam technology. From what I have seen thus far...there is
a place for both technologies.
