Well, Paul, maybe I missed something along the way, such as how this thread went from scanning a 6x7 negative to working with RAW files. I know threads morph and discussions wander, I just didn't see any messages to show the transition. Therefore my comment, as it's not possible to scan a negative and then open it in a RAW converter. I agree that his numbers don't add up.
