HDR images from SF Ai into LR 3 are too dark

Hi,
I'm importing old, yellowish B/W tiff images into Lightroom 3 after scanning them as 48-bit HDR colour in an Epson Perfection v750 with SF Ai. The images are coming out too dark and with a strong yellow cast. However, the preview window in SF shows me the images similar to the physical printouts. is this normal (expected) or do I need to make changes in the CMS of SF in order to get them lighter in LR?

Thanks!

Dear Kisch,

You are saving your pictures as RAW files in 16 bits with a linear gamma, it means you need to perform corrections in your editing program for the monitor to correctly display the pictures.
In this case you need to do this corrections in LR3.

Cheers
