Adjusting the Exposure Settings

Adjusting the Exposure Settings

You can manually adjust the exposure setting (scan speed) for film that has been intentionally over- or underexposed or that has an extremely bright or dark background.

The auto color adjustment function is turned off when the exposure setting is adjusted. The default setting for the auto color adjustment function is ‘on’ so that the scanner can automatically adjust the exposure to the film type.

With CanoScan FS2710, only the exposure needs to be adjusted. Both the exposure and the film type settings need to be adjusted with CanoScan 2700F. In addition, the exposure settings for color positives cannot be adjusted with CanoScan 2700F.

The film type is determined by the manufacturer and product. Please refer to the List of Film Types to set the film type setting (CanoScan 2700F only).
