I seem to be missing something. I have an Acer Scanwit 2740S, which
requires multiple passes to do a multiple scan. I thought that this
was the right thing to do to get lower noise when scanning at 16x. so
as to be able to average the input from successive reads. And, I
thought this would help in extracting info from seriously underexposed
negatives. Am I all wet on this?
