Yesterday I tried to use Vuescan but it was frustrating. Here's the situation: my old Nikon LS4000 is in urgent need of cleaning. I had a Minolta 5400-II on the shelf in an unopened box. Right after I bought it Minolta abandoned the business so I just forgot about the unit. Now I need to use it. Minolta's software is worse than awful. Any adjustment in the scanner interface at all blows out all the highlights. I have hundreds of valuable and faded historical images to restore.
So, Vuescan to the rescue. No matter how I set the input and output options I get nothing. The preview scan is dark gray and the output is just a file with all black pixels. I don't remember that ever happening before but I haven't used Vuescan for a couple of years. What glaringly obvious mistake am I making? I am clueless. -- Cary Enoch Reinstein... aka enochsvision, Enoch's Vision Inc.

The function of art is to reveal this radiance through the created object. - Joseph Campbell ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe by mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], with 'unsubscribe filmscanners' or 'unsubscribe filmscanners_digest' (as appropriate) in the message title or body
