Hi Bruce.

You mean to say that one ought to keep setting different gamma values in the
scanner software when scanning the target, then create a profile for each of
those gamma values and assign it to the raw scan of the target, until one
achieves the lowest Delta E values compared to the reference file: is that
correct?

It's been a while since I last used an Imacon, and I forget whether it
allows the user to specify precise increments in gamma values (e.g., 2.1,
2.2, 2.3, etc.): I seem to remember that it does, or am I mistaken?

Thank you, and best regards.
