I don't think it's the film or the scanner. I think it's the combination of 4,000 dpi resolution and the grain/clump/cloud characteristics of different films. I appears that 4,000 dpi is in the "really not sweet spot" for the types of film I've been using (primarily Kodak negative films ... Royal Gold 100 & 400 act about as bad as anything I've scanned so far). TTYL, DougF KG4LMZ
