![]() In short, the dynamic range won't be an issue. While colour negative film rarely exceeds a density range of 3 across all channels. I'd be very surprised if the Minolta's true dynamic range was anywhere near 4.8D, since the highest density of any film is well under 4.0 and most CCD scanners struggle with that. A simple colour-balance alteration doesn't cut it. Whatever the cause, I sometimes have to resort to rotating the red and/or yellow channel hue(s) in PhotoShop before the colour looks right. For mounted slides, you can batch scan if your scanner allows more than oneslide to be loaded into it at once. This works when all of the frames you want to scan are on the same strip of film. Possibly due to the scanner RGB filtering not aligning with the maximum absorption of the CMY dyes in the film. For scanning film, Vuescan has a BATCH SCANNING mode that allows you to scan multiple images at once. My experience is that some colour negative films cause a hue rotation during scanning. The difference in colour may be due to the light-sources or filtration of the scanners being different. Adapting Firewire/1394 to USB isn't trivial and needs both additional hardware and a translation of protocols. Most firewire-to-usb 'adapters' being sold are fakes that can't possibly work. The Minolta is Firewire 400 I can't get it to work with my current Mac, even with adapter.
