I've spent the last couple of days teaching myself how to scan some of my old medium format negatives with the Epson V700 scanner and then processing them in Lightroom 3. The Silverlight and Adobe elements software that came with the scanner were of little use --they would not load on the Mac Pro as they were not compatible with the Mac OSX 10.6.4 operating system.

The initial problems I encountered with the scanner were the flimsy filmholders, the dust, and inability to do 5x7 negatives. It is a prosumer scanner rather than a professional one. The second level of problems came with the colour balance. It was shockingly off--eg., rich orange in the rocks was purple. I have no idea how to correct the colour.
