About Film Types (CanoScan 2700F Users)

The film base color of color negative films, generally used to output prints on photographic paper, varies between manufacturers and individual products. As a result, you must select the correct film type when setting the exposure manually to achieve the correct coloration. In contrast, there is no need to specify the film type for color positive films, which are suited to projecting images onto screens or creating printing plates, because the colors are reproduced in direct correlation to those of the photographic subject.
