A few weeks ago I reported a problem I was having with the combination
of VueScan, the SS4000 and Kodak Portra 400UC. I reported that 75% of
the time I got a great, contrasty preview but that 25% of the time I got
a very low contrast preview that I could never get quite right in
Photoshop. After some experimenting, I determined that when I got the
low contrast preview, all I had to do to correct the problem was to quit
and restart VueScan. I wonder if some aspect of my tired old SS4000 is
is going out of whack and when I restart VueScan it resets the SS4000
back to an initial state from which it behaves properly again? I do not
have to power cycle the SS4000.


Hi Frank,

I had the same problem with Portra 160UC last night. All I did was select
lock exposure and clicked on Preview again and the problem was solved.

By the way this was using a Canon FS4000US.

Kind regards,
Conor Twomey.
