Hi Lluis, what does v700/Vuescan/LR5 give you?

I always want low contrast b&w film scans (similar to the Monochrom), you 
can then manipulate the image far more than if you start with a high 
contrast image....

I would like know your opinions, I'm not quite happy with the B&W I'm 
getting from my scanned latest films. In my opinion the first one I've 
posted The highlights and shadows areas are too extremes and in the picture 
the gray scale is very poor:

Plustek Scanner, Vuescan and processed with Capture One 7Pro 
<http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/luisrq/La+Barceloneta/2014070301.jpg.html>

I've do two new versions:

Plustek Scanner, Vuescan and processed with LR5 
<http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/luisrq/La+Barceloneta/2014070301bisLR5.jpg.html>

Epson V700, Epson Software, processed in LR5 
<http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/luisrq/La+Barceloneta/2014070301V700EPSoft001LR5.jpg.html>

What do you think? I Think I would choose the one with Plustek, Vuescan and 
LR5 I like better the contrast and on the other hand with Vuescan I can 
produce DNG files and this is much better.

Thank you very much!

Saludos cordiales
Lluis
