The current version of Vuescan is v7.6.61. It provides for histograms of
both the Preview scan and the record scan. That's what the Preview Hist.
and Scan Hist. tabs are.

Hi Laurie,
Given the new information, I would say that Austin needs to update his
familiarity with VueScan as well since much of the discussion appears to
involve Vuescan since that is what many of his fellow debaters are using.
You are correct that I (and apparently you as well ;-) weren't
You're not alone. I didn't check them until this question came up. I
actually thought that Preview Hist. was a log of some kind ;-0

The big advantage to Vuescan for me is that it is far more aggressive in altering
exposure
times than most scanner software. This can lead to rather extended scans, but it can

experience using ultrasonic cleaners for cleaning transparency film? Any
recommendations about solvents, particularly versions of Naptha? I think the
best system is the Lipsner Smith ultrasonic film cleaner, but it is for

Hi There
Been using my Microtek 120tf for a while, but it's developed an annoying
habit of drawing the filmholders in and then immediately ejecting them back
out.
Has anyone else experienced this? I can't get it to do anything differently
and the Microtek support is not helpful

Edwal makes a very adequate Anti-static film cleaner when used with a
lintless cloth (which can also be purchased). I've used it for 30+ years
after nearly being excused from my class at ACCD so long ago - my darkroom
was in a heavy construction zone then. I've used it as a way of avoiding
I agree with the Edwal suggestion, although in my color lab days I used a
less expensive cleaner available in large quantities. We only used film
cleaner to remove finger prints and deposits that couldn't be brushed or
blown off. We went through a LOT of compressed air. I still blow off the

Pardon me, but as I read this, Austin has said (paraphrasing) I don't think
that 16 bit depths on three channels is ever required and here's why (insert
explanation of perceptive abilities of humans and the results of mixing
three channels at 8 bit depth). Then he has said that if you

I think you're mistaken about that.
Well, that could very well be and

Don't worry about it. You will know for the future. I thank Peter for the
gentle way in which he informed you of the correction. I also appreciate

I have two questions about using vuescan.
1. Some people in the recent discussion on 8 vs. 16 bits have mentioned the
histograms in vuescan. In my experience, the preview histogram is not very
useful for what I would have thought was a primary use: setting the
whitepoint and blackpoint. For
