Hi, I just got the Microtek i900 to capture some very old Alaska 8x10 negatives. also smaller sizes. These are negatives I rescued about 50 years ago. I am now retired and want to digitize them. I have been trying various options on the i900 and do not like the results. First I don't see any significant improvements in the various scan resolutions. But my main problem is the B/W dynamic range. snow is light gray, spruce shadows are charcoal. I am searching the web for help and looking for any books or tips. Out of all the negatives there are several which have some historic significance. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
