Re: filmscanners: firsttime vuescan user



I use both Vuescan & Nikon scan for different purposes.
If all the images on a film strip were exposed to the same light conditions
and there is no back light, then Vuescan is faster, and more efficient in
numbering.
If all the images are exposed with a varying light source and some are
backlit Nikonscan is the software to use.
Nikonscan seems to treat each frame with "respect", Vuescan seems to use the
exposure from the first frame as the norm and cannot cope with varying
conditions, backlighting, or a in case where a window is in the frame, just
totally confuses it.
Nikonscan crops perfectly, Vuescan leaves black edges if the strip hasn't
been cut with precision.
Both have idiosyncratic interfaces. Nikonscan cannot be read on my monitor,
the fonts used are impossibly small for my ancient vision. But after much
use I can now feel my way through the controls. The preview and histogram
are useful for badly exposed images.
Vuescan's preview is something I never use, there is no immediate feedback.
But the ability to scan a raw image then use the controls to find the best
output is useful
