no adjustments are made to color or tonal scale using the scanner software) and then use Photo Shop to adjust the resulting file. Some folks don't bother to profile their scanners.

SCANWIZARD EZ DRIVER

It's too bad you can't use VueScan until/if Ed creates a driver for your scanner. I will try some provia next time and maybe colour 4x5 in the future. :D Right now i'm just scanning small and medium format colour negs. Can you tell me which one to get for my scanner? They seem a lot. If ever the distro doesn't want to help me calibrating this scanner i might get one. I asked them if they can provide me an IT8 target so i could calibrate my scanner. :(Д«y the way, I contacted the local distro in Tehran. I didn't get this sort of problem when i was using Epson scanner and software. I'm just annoyed with how this scanner scans my colour negs. Then i add a few minutes on tweaking (curves, colour balance or saturation). I scan 1 frame then look for the output after scanning because the preview scan doesn't help me either since the preview is a bit different than the output!!! It such a headache. Profiling is a must! I would prefer a profiled scanner to my system than having extra headache when doing PP in photoshop. It was very easy! I think in a scanner like Microtek i800 + Tweaking is necessary. I don't know i didn't do any profiling with the scanner and Epson software. I remember using my v500 with mediumformat colour negs.

It would be nice if i could get atleast a decent scan and just have a minimal PP in my workflow.

I'm almost doing flatscan right now but still dealing with cast and stuff will add an hour or less just to fix it.

SCANWIZARD EZ PRO

So, i will have to deal with Scanwizard Pro v.7.24 (i thought it was v.7.25 lol) I've hear very nice things about Vuescan from professional friends but too bad i can't use it.

SCANWIZARD EZ UPDATE

I hope he does make an update that can support my i800 plus version.

SCANWIZARD EZ HOW TO

There are instructions as to how to profile using VueScan in it's 'Help' pages. The same caution applies regarding the IT8 data file. If you have the 'Pro' version of Vuescan, you can use it to profile your scanner. For example, mine is 2004.02 for my Kodak target. You can find this in the lower left corner of the target tranny. You must make absolutely sure you use the IT8 or Q60-E1 data file that matches the calibration target transparency.

SCANWIZARD EZ SOFTWARE

If you installed the Microtek IT8 profiling software and the IT8 target files, you can use this to profile the scanner. The more detail you can give him, the better. Ed is pretty good about helping resolve issues. Be sure to attach a copy of the VueScan logfile. Send Ed Hamrick an e-mail detailing the issue(s) you're having. Some samples i scanned a few days ago (Pardon it's small/617 format) Fuji Superia and Fuji ProH I've been testing this scanner for a week now! hahaha Hope someone could advice a simple setup i could do with this so atleast i could start and finish this testing phase. It seems like i opened a can of worm with this digital setup! It's very easy like plug and play but now it's different. I remember when using Epson V500 years ago i didn't do any profiling or calibration with it. I'm trying to research on how to calibrate/profile scanner right now. Of course it would be much better if my scanner is calibrated properly for future works especially with colour negs and reflective for prints. Is there any other way i could atleast calibrate the scanner to match my monitor? The first time i used the Microtek softwares i'm getting unpleasant scans but after a few tweaks with the settings i got a few good ones but i'm sure it's not perfectly calibrated but i like the results. My scanner didn't come with IT8 target to work on. I've installed these softwares already (MSP, ICC Profiler) but since i'm a bit ignorant on digital workflow i'm not sure what do to. Silverfast Ai isn't a solution because it's a bit expensive for me! How i wish Ed could make a solution for this soon. Too bad, Scanwizard Pro is nice but it's a bit Pre historic and i could only use version 7.25 with this scanner. Sadly, My Microtek i800 Plus is not supported by Vuescan.
