[filmscanners] RE: Scanner calibration

["Alex Zabrovsky" <alexz@zoran.co.il>]

Good, but first I would certainly prefer to make the most out of the
scanner.
It proved to be able  to deliver good and neutral results once, so I'm
trying to work out this back. Then Photoshop will come to mind for
corrections and final adjustments.
BTW, there is good point in your saying about rendering shadows bluish.
In my case, the violet (or strong bluish) case was most prominent in darker,
shadowed areas of the image indeed.
Now, assuming I'll insure the reason for that thing was the outdated film,
I'll scan them as it is with confidence and will correct the cast in
Photoshop.

Regards,
Alex Z

Why not just correct the colors in Photoshop?  I correct colors in almost
every single image I scan, since film only has one color balance, and the
real world has many (e.g., images shot in shadow often look bluish, and I
usually correct them to make them a bit more white).
