I am trying the stock Canon Software, SilverFast, and VueScan and not really getting good results with any. Any recommended settings? Should I scan as a color photo to get as much info as possible or just do B&W photo, 16 bit grayscale? Is there a way to do dust and scratch repair on printed photos with VueScan? Thanks in advance. --------------------------- Sony|SonyIR|Sony NEX|Minolta Film|Polaroid If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine "No one cares how hard you worked...but they will notice if you didn't work hard enough." -Ctein |

Will do. I am scanning some with a variety of settings and I'll get them up. --------------------------- Sony|SonyIR|Sony NEX|Minolta Film|Polaroid If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine "No one cares how hard you worked...but they will notice if you didn't work hard enough." -Ctein |

Long delay. I got tied up. I haven't had a lot of time to play with it, but I tried the Canon software, SilverFast and VueScan. I think I got the best results from the Canon software so far, but I am buying VueScan anyway to use with my Minolta 5400 II. No editing, straight scan:  Mild editing, Color fix and mild dust and scratch removal in the scanner software:  I didn't scan this one in the other software setups. I did do some in all three, I just have to find them. --------------------------- Sony|SonyIR|Sony NEX|Minolta Film|Polaroid If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine "No one cares how hard you worked...but they will notice if you didn't work hard enough." -Ctein |

I should have tried harder to post these as soon as I scanned them so I'd remember the settings. =/ Canon attempt #1, Mostly auto, B&W photo:  Canon attempt #3, more adjustments, scanned as color photo:  Silverfast Attempt, mostly auto, some tweaking:  VueScan attempt #1, B&W photo  VueScan attempt #2, color photo with tweaking:  --------------------------- Sony|SonyIR|Sony NEX|Minolta Film|Polaroid If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine "No one cares how hard you worked...but they will notice if you didn't work hard enough." -Ctein |
