<BR>
<EM>&gt; Take a look at vuescan. This application is used a lot among serious
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &quot;film scanners&quot; (aka professional photographers). IMHO the only thing
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; missing in vuescan is the curve tool.
</EM><BR>
<P>I second this, a Sane frontend for film scanners that emulated the features
<BR>
of VueScan would be very close to ideal. Lots of people use VueScan in
<BR>
preference to the software provided by the manufacture of the scanner.
<BR>
<P><P><EM>&gt; If you want to scan negatives, you need a library of rules to remove
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; the orange mask for all sorts of films. In vuescan you select the
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; brand (e.g. Kodak) and then the type of film (e.g. Gold) and then the
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; emulsion revision (e.g. 6), so it's a rather sophisticated algorithm
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; to remove the mask.
</EM><BR>
<P>The other things I can think of are multi-pass scanning, i.e. scanning the
<BR>
same negative several times and taking average values. This reduces the noise
<BR>
in the scanned image and improves shadow detail etc. Batch scanning of strips
<BR>
of negatives, handling APS loaders etc. All this things make scanning
<BR>
negatives/slides a much more pleasant task.
<BR>
<P>Take a look a VueScan it more or less does it all.

<P>JAB.
