Fujifilm GA645ZI-->Pro160NS

Is it me or is there a slight magenta cast in the photo? Granted in this area of Glacier National Park ( and others ) there are LOTs of purplish colored rocks, but I'm not sure it's my monitor, or the film, or the scanning. Scanned with a V500 using Vuescan.

hi,
I always get that magenta cast with fuji color negative films and it's most noticeable at tree trunks to me.

There is a color cast. Look into the recent threads about DSLR scanning, color correction was discussed there, it's not trivial.
Did you use a setting for this film (I don't know vuescan)? It looks like the software did a crude auto-correction, and averaging the lots of greens in the picture gave this color cast.

All the FujiPro 160 films (C, S, NS,) that I have used seem very prone to having that magenta cast.
Try scanning with this method, it might help.

Swift, thanks for the link. Good info in there.

I used Epson Scan this time around and followed the instructions most of the way. The resulting image has less contrast and to my eyes looks right.

Glad to be of assistance 🙂
Looks better. Still has that FujiPro 160 signature look 🙂
