You can set the dropper to average a 3x3 pixel area and also a 5x5 area.

In Photoshop?
Yes, you can choose from a single pixel, a 3 by 3 pixel average, or a 5 by 5
pixel average.
I don't know what version of PS you use, but a search in help for 'sample size'
will tell y
this, but I haven't
used any other graphics editing software anything like as seriously as I've
used PS).

Yes, but it's quick. When you're working on images that differ greatly in
subject, film, time of day, and exposure (and I always am), it saves a lot
of time to get col

It is very hit-and-miss, specially on the defaults which cause massive
highlight clipping - too much for many of my pics. You can change them

I cannot say I do use PS "Auto Levels" often. Will go off and try it quickly to see.
On the last couple of photos that I adjusted the white point up .05 for the blue
component, auto levels in Photoshop doesn't work out too well. Makes the colors even
more off, took the blue out though!

I noticed this with blue in shadows on 400 superia many versions ago, I will have to
dig out the negs and see if the later versions have fixed it.
I find with my scanwit all my scans with people in them, or actually all my scans
lately have way too much blue in the period. I'm compensating wit
and I thought it was me, or maybe, I just wasn't holding
my mouth right.
I too have had a problem that looks just like this.
I have seen the 'blue highlights' phenomenon occur using Kodak
Supra 400 & 100 negatives. I have not experienced
this with Provia 100F slides.
