I'm so used to the Shadow/Midtone/Highlight division in Photoshop that I forgot that when you're doing chemical printing, you're affecting the whole image at once. Another thought: I read in a review of the UMAX PowerLook III that it doens't handle colour negative film as well as it handles the colour reversal type (there where scans on the page to illustrate the concept -- the difference was dramatic). Is this a common feature of scanners and therefore one should shoot chromes rather than negs? M. - -- Martin Howard | Visiting Scholar, CSEL, OSU | All wiyht.
