Film Type
Fig. 22 Film Type
This pop-up menu allows the user to specify film type regardless of what kind
of film is placed in the scanner. If a monochrome scan of a negative color image
is desired, you should choose
B & W Negative . The Autoexposure measurements
are compensated according to tone range of the average color values. If a unique
color tone separation is required, a color scan can be made and the appropriate
color channel can then be manipulated in the image processing application to
achieve the desired color/tone balance in black and white.
