ISO320 will generally improve most ISO400 materials, without causing
problems.
Do you have any s/w control over gamma at scan time? IE anything you can
dial in after preview to control gamma of the final scan.
Vuescan's 'Image brightness' controls both gamma and brightness in an
interlinked fashion. Are improvements available there? And what film
characterisation are you using, and with what film?
