Digital BW, The Print

After some DNG RAW scan exports of B&W negatives from Vuescan to ACR I 
would say that at least a negative to positive step should happen on 
Vuescan before the export. Makes it easier to use the tools in ACR 
properly. Of course a RAW from a scanner is not as raw as a camera 
delivers but there are some tools in ACR that make this method attractive.

In color, creating an ACR profile for the V700 scanner with Color 
Checker Passport delivered correct color checker scans but a scan of a 
Z3200 calibration target with 6 Vivera pigments had 3 of the 6 pigments 
way off. Which probably says more of the V700 lamp and Passport limited 
pigments number than off the DNG RAW route but going that route you need 
some CM measures.
