Also, is it better to make
this adjustment at the scanning stage in Vuescan, or in the post scan stage
in Photoshop?
Vuescan doesn't offer a colour-managed preview, so cannot be relied upon to give
results which will look the same in PS. Best to do the adjustments in PS, with 16bit
output
Makes perfect sense. Thanks Tony.

Ed, I'm not sure what you mean by "it's the same as 2.2/gamma." When I scan
16 Bit Grayscale using Vuescan and my Sprintscan4000, the first thing I do
when I open the file in Photoshop is Adjust/Levels/middle slider to 2.2. I
then apply a curve based on 30/20; 50/50; 70/80 to boost the
How do you get 48 bit scans out of the SS4000. I am under the impression
that only 36 bit scans are available using the supplied soft ware--Pola
Color.
48bits=3 x 16bit, and your 12bit/channel data gets padded to 16bits when creating a
raw scan in Insight.
I have the Binuscan for SS4000
I'm looking for something that will accept 48-bit raw scans I have made
with the SS4000 and do a reasonable job of compressing the tonal range
without muddying the shadows or blowing out the highlights, and
generate 24-bit files my client can look at and decide which images are
really worth

Hello Dana.
How do you get 48 bit scans out of the SS4000. I am under the impression

I thought Binuscan might be appropriate for this, but when I went to
their web site I wasn't able to find much content in all the verbiage.
I know several people on this list have used Binuscan and other tools
-- what are your suggestions?
For this, try Vuescan instead - www.hamrick.com
