The new version of Minolta scanning software has been 
available for free download on the 

http://www.minoltaeurope.com 

site for a week now, but I hadn't noticed it appearing on the USA 
site.  This is a great, and much needed, improvement for the 
Minolta Multi Pro 4800dpi scanner.  It adds new manual 
exposure controls and seems to scan color and b+w negatives 
vastly better than the original version.  Histograms are no longer 
clipped and grain aliasing seems to be history.

It is designed for all Minolta scanners.  It looks like I can stop 
using Vuescan, but I have not really put the software through a 
series of tests yet.

Hi Frank,

we are waiting for your opinion on the MultiPro group at Yahoo!
<smile> Yor words: "Hitting a controller funktion is like resetting 
etc" is away.
A nice piece of soft - indeed.
Away are the "gritteness" and "oversensitive to scratches". etc etc.
Manual exposure and more goodies!

Fiat Lux!
Bo
