I'm using an Epson 2450. The slides are off color-wise - too cool and 
lacking good orange tones - maybe a bad process, maybe the film has 
aged. After scanning I had a lot of Photoshop work to get the images 
balanced. Some were too warm, pinkish really, and some too cold, with a 
green cast. I should have tried VueScan as I bet it is the software and 
not the scanner itself. Getting all of the slides in the series to match 
was a pain, and there are two more I could not get right.

I'll be sending in another roll of this film for processing next week. 
If the colors are bad the remaining 7 rolls get dumped - I thought I had 
6 more months of life in this batch - I hate to expire Kodachrome!

Thanks,
