Re: [APML] A questions for users of the SS4000

Hey Carlos,

OK, my fault, I did not give you all the information. I always scan my
images in 'raw mode'. However, in the pre-scan dialogs, when dialing in
the settings, there are plenty of options and those are what I'm
wondering about. I'm just guessing here, but I assume that by changing
the settings with E-200 from 'color slides' to 'under-exposed color
slides', I unknowingly adjusted the scanner exposure time allowing a
more thorough scan. Thereby allowing a complete histogram, which I
believe iswhat we all want. Correct?

Thanks,
Alan
