Many scanners add some USM sharpening as a default. Make sure you turn it off if you want to reduce film ganularity. If you must sharpen, do it selectively in your image editing program just before you print. Since I discovered how to turn off the USM in my Imacon Photo (-120 & sharpen on!), I can get grainless scans. Tim Mimpriss
