Thanks,
Has anyone using the Epson 2450 tried scanning MF or LF negs/trannies?
Have you noticed if it has the same banding/cross hatching problem the 1640
has in light, even areas - skies, walls etc.
(this is a fundamental flaw caused by the cross hatch array of the flat cold

Art,
The only mark on the CCL is QF. I'm not experienced enough but I
would have thought that the HP manual calibration procedure would have
accommodated this variation?
I have gone ahead and ordered the 8500K which is also slightly
brighter so I'll post the result next week.
Thanks for your
I'm not Tony, but I have a few suggestions.
Unlike color photo papers, which are sensitive to color filters and film
base color, etc, you have a LOT more control with inkjet printing.
There are two ways you can get neutral B+W out of your inkjet printer
from chromogenic films.
1) Scan it as a

Hi folks -
I had never tried any of the C-41 films before, and just shot a roll
of XP-2. At the processing place I had them print it on color paper,
and the prints have that sepia tone that I associate with the type.
However,
For Ed,
Last night I tried VueScan 7.5 b5
It still has a problem I mentioned earlier.
If I choose a Fixed dpi Image size like 300 dpi and a TIFF size reduction of
2, the resulting TIFF file has a dpi setting of 150.
When I choose a fixed dpi setting I expect it does not change ;-)

One of the reasons these chromogenic C-41 based films were created was
so that people could get results without having to get what is now
special processing using black and white chemistry, allowing for quick
results at any lab offering color neg processing.
They have an added advantage of
