The reason for my reply yesterday was my overflowing with frustration when I
tried to scan a bunch of negs on the Nikon4000 scanner. The dynamic range of
the negs (actually, of the subjects) was just waaaay to narrow -- and
stretching the distributions (in 14bit/color images) led to an obscene amounts
of noise. And without stretching the scans looked too flat. Maybe I was doing
something wrong.

Yup, I'd like to see that too.
