I've seen a Canoscan slidescanner under W$. The interface had a menu item
to select different Filmbrands and Types to get best results with them.

I think we could implement such a feature if someone who found out some
good Gamma corrections for his favourite films would send them to the
development team so that they can collect values vor different films.
This would enhance the usability of slidescanners (slide extensions at
flat scanners).

This is only a suggestion from a new SANE user. Unfortunately I'm not
so familiar with the SANE project that I can say something about the
realisation. Could someone comment this proposal whether it is realistic
or not?

Regards

Andreas.
