Actually, that's what, in my view, is good for: get as much accurate data from your CCD as you can, for further tweaking in Photoshop. I am not aware of any other tool that allows you to store 4 channels (IR included) of raw CCD data
Its color correction tools have a lot to desired (although for those who don't have Photohsop that may be the only way to make 16bit color corrections). But it is fast, takes very little of system resources (unlike, say, NikonScan) and does multisapmling with almost any scanner. What else do you wnat from a driver? Besides, the fact that it is *very well* supported by Ed Hamrick is a very important point. He makes new upgrades every few weeks and responds very well to all observations/comments. > From: Aaron Reynolds > Subject: Re: Film scanners? > Date: Fri, 03 May 2002 06:29:42 -0700 > > ----------------------------- > > On Friday, May 3, 2002, at 01:53 AM, Paul Stenquist wrote: > > > But I do the real > > correction work in PhotoShop as well.
