The basic philosophy of this scanning procedure is to scan with as few adjustments as possible while scanning and adjust the rest in Photoshop.
I personally only scan traditional B&W negatives with VueScan, since after several comparisons, I found it more straightforward for me to scan color negative and slide film with Nikon Scan (with no adjustments while scanning). Some people will recommend using the ‘lock base’ feature of VueScan to fix exposure. There are many different ways to proceed I only outline the process that works for me. I would imagine other scanners should be similar. While this piece is based on use with a Nikon Coolscan V, other Coolscans should be almost identical in operation. This is a quick tutorial on using Ed Hamrick’s excellent VueScan with a Nikon Coolscan to scan traditional B&W negatives. I have revisited this topic now that I am scanning with a digital camera.
