That is basically what I do. However, I find that most of the time auto-levels is good enough.

Most of the Photoshop videos for converting color negative scans to positives are for the full version of Photoshop.  The method shown in the video link below looks like it would work with Photoshop Elements.  You simply invert the colors, then adjust each of the RBG colors individually in Levels.

He says he also did a video for how to do it in Photoshop if you don't use Lightroom.

Ah, but that assumes a film scanner. I’ve been putting slides on a light box and shooting them with my K-5 (on a tripod) and a macro lens.

So, I need a software solution that runs on a Mac. Any ideas?

I’ve been going through lots of family photos the last few days for an upcoming event.

Most of the shots were slides, but a substantial number were prints. For many of those, the prints are lost but the negatives remain.

Is there a way, without huge investment, to turn scanned color negatives into positives?

All film scanners I know of have software that does the necessary
inversion and color mask removal.
