    Scan Velvia with silverfast

    Hello, I try to scan 120 rollfilm with my epson 850 scanner and silverfast. I think the colors are not really correct. They have a blue touch and are dark.
    Do you have some experience with scanning velvia film?
    Thank you.

    I use Epsonscan on my Epson v600. Never tried Silverfast. These are all 120 film.

    I have scanned Velvia 4x5's and 35mm with my venerable Epson 4850 and Silverfast. I never had problems with color matching, though I recalibrate the scanner whenever I have a critical scan. My biggest problem has been pulling detail out in shadows.Click image for larger version.

    I had nothing but problems with silverfast for months with my Epson 750 until finally getting advise from others in the forum to use Epsonscan. Since them I have never had any issues for accurate color.

    Good luck.
