Hi, Mikael,

I was very much convinced of Nikon Scan until I replaced my LS-30 (NS
2.5) with a LS-40 (NS 3.1). NS 3.1 will inexorably clip shadows with
negatives because the "prescan mode: lo-cont neutral" option that fixed
the problem in NS 2.5 has been removed in 3.x.

I have been using Vuescan since - a bit fussy as to getting some colors
right but capable of getting all the information out of my negatives.
Nikon Scan is no longer an option in that respect.

Best regards -

Ralf
