I have a Nikon Coolscan V ED and use Vuescan Pro to scan 35mm negatives as Tiffs with Color Balance set at Neutral and Scan Resolution set at 4000 dpi in Vuescan. When I process these scans in Darktable, there are no Base Curves for these images because the scanner obviously is not a camera. Since I don't attempt to influence what Vuescan has read from the film, I was wondering if it made sense to try to develop a Base Curve for the scanner. I am a neophyte at this, so I'm on shaky ground here. In any case, as I have thousands of images I am scanning from years of 35mm SLR photography, an auto applied Base Curve would help simplify my work flow. So does this make sense, is it worth pursuing, and does anyone have any opinions as to the best way to create a Base Curve for my situation?
