Exposure
•
Manual: You can set exposure time,
exposure index, and f-number directly
at the camera. The scanner will not
change your settings.
•
By Scanner: The scanner will first
turn around to determine a balanced
exposure setting. Then it will turn
backwards and take all pictures with
that same setting. You can alter the
exposure from the value suggested by
the scanner. A positive correction of
1-2 is appropriate for scans taken in a
dark room with light coming in from
windows.
