should I read the dmin white patch on the Kodak Q60 used for profiling the
scanner, and use that value as my "absolute" base density in the bd setup
dialog? I have it at 0.05 right now, w/relative set to the same value, which
is what I read off the dmin patch w/my densitometer. the docs say something
about setting these two to the same value for reflectives but it's not very
clear to me. I don't use the automatic BD analysis function as this is a
gang-scanning situation.
