Prescan Mode (LS-2000/COOLSCAN III only)
With low-contrast images,
autoexpo-sure may sometimes
fail to produce the correct re-
sults. Three options are avail-
able that allow the autoexposure operation to be adjusted for
different types of low contrast image, potentially producing bet-
ter exposure.
Selecting “nega-tive” as the media type activates
a menu of autoexposure op-tions in the Scanner Extras palette
(see above).
Four options are available:
•
Automatic
This is the recommended setting in most circumstances, suited
to images that show a normal balance among shadows, mid-
tones, and highlights.
Use a different setting only if you expe-
rience problems scanning negatives using the automatic set-
ting.
•
Lo-Cont. Highkey
This setting is suited to low-con-
trast images with clearly-defined
white areas, but no clear shadows,
for example a photograph of white
clouds in a blue sky.
•
Lo-Cont. Neutral
This setting is suited to low-con-
trast images in which mid-tones
predominate, with no clearly-de-
fined areas of black or white, for
example a photograph of red rose
against a green background.
•
Lo-Cont. Lowkey
This setting is suited to low-con-
trast images with clearly-defined
black areas, but no clear highlights,
for example a photograph of the
night sky.
