So if anything one could be arguing that scanning stinks.

Dark regions which have good detail in analog get almost totally black after scanning. : Actually the scanner/Vuescan combination has problems coping with high dynamic range in my slides. I would probably never finish this, but as my wife is doing the job chances are that we finish sooner than in eternityĬoncerning the one post : film stinks. You are right : I am starting to scan my analog archive in order to have everything in digital. If it is either the Epson V700 or V750, the Epson Scanning Software (that shipped with my V700) has been somewhat better for my scanning than the Vuescan software What Brand and Model Scanner are you using. The expectation is that Vuescan should use the info about the orange and then subtract' this from the following scans resulting in scans which have 'correct color', at least to the extent that the green colour cast (orange in negative is green in positive) is totally removed. Now I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or my expectation is wrong.

I have tried this multiply but alway end up with scans which have a green color cast. This should tell Vuescan what the 'orange' precisely looks like. In order to 'remove' the orange color cast of the film I followed the procedure describes in the manual as well as in following link :īasically you scan a region which only contains the orange film-dye and then 'lock film base color'. I'm having problems scanning negatives with vuescan.
