DIMAGE SCAN DUAL III UTILITY – ADVANCED SCANNING

Exposure-control tab

The exposure control is not an image-processing tool. No gamma or contrast changes can be made. The exposure-control tab allows the scanner’s exposure system to be customized to specif- ic films, lighting, or a personal exposure index based on the film, processing, lens, and shutter combination. This can also be used to compensate for badly exposed film.

Simply click the exposure-control tab to display the selected image. If a prescan has not been made, the scanner will make one automatically.

If any changes are made to exposure, the exposure control tab will be highlighted in red (Windows), or an asterisk will be displayed on the tab (Macintosh).

The master slider and text box control the overall exposure. The R, G, and B sliders and text boxes are used to compensate for any color shift.
