Alan,
Don't you find that the colour balance is markedly altered
when you crop the preview and then scan it? I find that my
principal subject, somewhere inside the frame, is often more
colourful than its surroundings.
I find this on my own Scanwit. For this reason I alter the
'Crop|Buffer%' strip round the edge to 10% so that I
centre-weight the preview colour balance. It then changes
less radically if I crop the image. I haven't worked out
whether it's a 10% linear strip right round the outside of
the image (1-0.8*0.8, 36% of the pixels) or 10% of the
pixels. (Ed H?)
Or do you always work on the full image area and crop it
later? (Arguably this is an easier way to work.)
Regards,
Alan T

while adjusting color settings to get an image that is great
in PS and requires very little tweaking.
