One obvious suggestion has already been made, to turn ICE off. I also find that the preview is very dark with loss of shadow detail when I scan Scala, and my solution is to use the analog gain feature to adjust the scanner's exposure to the slide. In the end I am able to get a good scan, but sometimes after tweaking this setting 2-3 times. I use none of the other image adjustments in Nikonscan, everything else is done in Photoshop.
