In the end I scanned the 3 rolls using Epson Scan, for one main reason: a lot more convenient. I cannot figure out how to make Vuescan work in batch mode, whereas with Epson Scan I can load the film holders with 4 strips, make individual exposure adjustments for each frame if I so desire, and then just let it rip.
