I’ve got a Nikon Coolscan IV and want to scan some old B&W negatives with it

When I do, they look OK in the preview but when they transfer to PS they are posterized to about 8 levels I’d guess.

Can anyone help me overcome this. Are there settings I ma missing in the Nkon or in PS

Colour scans are working reasonably well though they seem noisy

Many thanks

Try to scan in grayscale mode not in B/W mode (8bits)
