Dialog for the CanoScan 2700F
With the [Auto Color Balance] off, select a film type from
A to D and drag the slider to adjust the exposure setting.
Please refer to the List of Film Types in the Appendix for
the correct film type setting for each film product (p. 124).
Over-exposing an image gives it a bright effect. To do this, the scanner will
accelerate the scan speed for negative film and slow it for positive film. Under-
exposing an image gives it a dark effect. To do this, the scanner will slow the scan
speed for negative film and accelerate it for positive film.
About Film Types (CanoScan 2700F Users)
The film base color of color negative films, generally used to output prints on
photographic paper, varies between manufacturers and individual products.
As a result, you must select the correct film type when setting the exposure
manually to achieve the correct coloration. In contrast, there is no need to
specify the film type for color positive films, which are suited to projecting
images onto screens or creating printing plates, because the colors are
reproduced in direct correlation to those of the photographic subject.
