Re: filmscanners: FW: New PolaColor Insight Color Slide profile for Sprintscan 4000 & 4000+

["Owen P. Evans" <opevans@istar.ca>]

Hi David,
I loaded the profile; previewed a slide I know very well (it's a bit
underexposed with extremely rich red coloured flowers)and the preview was "
a rendition of the slide"; I could tell it was in the ballpark. Then I
scanned a 12bit 4000dpi scan and viewed it in Photoshop as well as in
Insight. Both scans turned very Orange and were Very bright and the
highlights were totally blown out. I could not get the scan to look good at
all????
I'll try a couple more tomorrow but for now; this is not very good at all!
Sorry,
Owen
