My recollection of the Nikon Help >facility is that it too was less then detailed. >Regards, >Greg Greg If you want to set the curves in the scanning program, then Silferfast AI is the only choice. Nikon's and Vuescan's options are quite poor. But my experience (after I have just scanned over B&W 100 rolls in the past 2 weeks) is that it is better to fiddle the curves afterwards in Photoshop - this way the whole workflow gets faster. That's why I'm actually evaluating a demo copy of Vuescan, as for straight batch scanning (entire rolls) it is maybe even better and faster than Silverfast. Just scan all rolls with an average setting. Important is that you scan in 16-bit not 8-bit mode, otherwise you loose a lot of information and adjusting in PS gets problematic. Didier
