Thanks for your interest. . .
I'm scanning for quite big files - 20 - 30 MB. - Yep, quite high resolution.
Trying to do it once - convert existing film shot into digital, clean them up - they are mostly very scratched from the original processors in Umtata, South Africa. All kept carefully in sleeves since 2001 - 2003 but obviously had a tough time going through developing and printing machines first time round.
Since posting I have noticed that some scratch removal is accomplished by the scanner/software system together but nothing like the preview images suggested was going to be achieved - I could see no difference to begin with!
When I go into to the digital scan in highly enlarges format I see the auto efforts, and often I am redoing those with a clone stamp for much better result.
It still seems that something is not working as it should?
