Subject: [Leica] Vuescan and dng scans

I have been playing with my scanner and different formats.  I just 
noticed that Vuescan allows a scan to dng, which in turn allows a lot 
more adjustments in Lightroom.  The scans also look better this way.  
One drawback is that each scan is 110mb!  Is there any setting to make 
the scans smaler?  A tiff scan of the same image is only 30mb.

On a side note if I run the vuescan dng through the adobe dng converter 
it then becomes only 74 megs.  I'd still like to get it a little smaller 
if possible.

Any help is appreciated.
