scanner software

I've been messing around with Vuescan vs Nikonscan with my CS V.

And all I've gotta say is :bang: and 😡 and :bang:

When the neg scans well in nikonscan, it stinks in vuescan.

WHen the neg scans well in vuescan, it stinks in nikonscan.

Now back to your regularily scheduled GAS attack courtesy of RFF. 😛

Jano,
I have consistently found that the ICE control in NikonScan is much better than in Vuescan. Other than that, I find Vuescan to be much better.

Keep in mind that what you're after is the most detail you can get. This is more than just resolution - it's also about tones. So you might get better scans sometimes out of NikonScan right out of the scanner, but I can almost promise that you will always get more tonal detail out of VueScan. Yes, you might need to spend an extra 5 minutes in PS afterwards to get all of the images the way you want, but I feel that is better than losing highlight and/or shadow detail as can sometimes happen with NS.
