[filmscanners] RE: Scanner calibration

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

Oh yes, thanks.
Frankly, just forgot about the alternative way of Vuescan.
I have the trial version already downloaded, but once realized it isn't
going to offer me any benefits on scanning Superia negs I opted back to
NikonScan (from Photoshop).
I'll check the setting of NS you mentioned to be problematic in previous
versions, although would it be the problem it would persist on each and
single slide scan, but as I said switching films seemed to reveal the
mystery (outdated film).

Regards,
Alex Z

  Not to suggest you (Alex) use Vuescan, but I'd suggest you download the
demo and try it.  It would offer an alternative and a troubleshooting trial
to see if your CM efforts are aimed at the correct problem.

  I remember such sysmptoms using an earlier version of NS which constantly
yielded a tint effect similar to yours which was corrected by choosing a
different preview preference ... something like disabling "cache previous
preview scan".
