Scanning Procedures
Although scanning procedures vary for each color mode (color, grayscale or black and white), the
basics are the same. Use the following procedures as a guideline. Each step is explained in greater
detail on the referenced pages.

Load the film into the film holder, then insert the film holder into the scanner.

Select a film type (color/monochrome, negative/positive) matching the film you are scanning.

Set the color mode. See p. 34.
Select between
[24-Bit Color]
and
[42-Bit Color]
for the color mode, between
[8-Bit Grayscale]
and
[14-Bit Grayscale]
for the grayscale mode, and
[Black and White]
for the black and white mode.
