It is a printing program and will batch-rotate for printing, but I don't know whether
you can batch-rotate and then save as rotated. Mike Chaney is the developer and is as

Hi Bernhard,
I believe I've heard that some Nikons can have focusing problems.
Just as an FYI, you CAN get an equally as detailed scan out of a 2700DPI
scanner as with a 4000DPI scanner, depending on where things line up.

Check out CompuPic Pro (www.photodex.com), it has batch
processing/conversion capabilities, in addition to viewing, thumbnailing,
and indexing functions. It's also extremely fast at decoding and displaying
images.

You can get sharp scans and NOT scan down to the film grain. In fact,
