Greetings.
I’ve embarked on the arduous task of scanning old colour slides to HDD. I wonder what the feeling is about scanner settings, as I’ve read that It’s better to do everything in PS, to complicate things the colour and a lot of detail is changed or gone, I did try scanning with and without auto exposure and found not much difference in the result after fiddling in PS.
Does anyone have an easy way to fix colour casts, Levels together with colour balance seem to do as good a job as shadow/highlight tool and curves, not worth spending much time on each as the slides are in a very poor state, – still, they ARE memories.
Using an Epson 1650 scanner and Twain 5 driver.

Malcolm
