You should try Version 5.5 if scanning negatives. It is a LOT better. You
can download a demo and check it out yourself.

That is unusual. Is this occurring in the preview or only the scan? Check
which profile you are using as the basis for your preview display. If based
upon your own monitor profile it might be that there is something not quite
right with it
