I just set for "Generic" film type and save as 8 bit grey scale. I do think I indicate that film type is B&W, but if you use one of the films that has a orange mask then maybe you have to indicate color film but save as grey scale. I set color to "white balance" for almost all films. Mike D john wrote: > What Vuescan settings do you use for C-41 B&W...do you scan it as a > color negative?
