I observed blown out highlight with some of my b&w scansI do at work wiht the LS-40, but this could of course be as well the negs that are over- exposed. I will check again if there is something to do... Maybe in VueScan it is better - I will try out next week and compare NikonScan and VueScan in this respect. My forthcoming MF scanner will have a Minolta or Polaroid tag on it, but certainly not a Nikon one.... Greetings Bernhard
