Vuescan and scanner profiling are at odds it seems. I've seen numerous discussions on various photo forums about Vuescan profiling and how it never works.  My own experience was that after profiling my Canscan 2710 film scanner with a Wolf Faust IT8 trannie target, my scans had a slight magenta cast.

After reading more about PP, I'm wondering if it will allow me to profile my film scanner as it does seem very biased towards flatbed scanners.

Hi

I use my Canon FS2710 film scanner with Vuescan Pro and have profiled that scanner with an IT8 target for Fuji Provia trannies, but with little or no success when using Vuescan to create and use the profile.  Will Profile Prism allow me to create a profile that can be used directly by Vuescan or will I have to create a "neutral" scan using Vuescan and then apply the PP-generated profile in Photoshop (or any other ICC-aware image editing app) in order to correct the image?

Also, why can't I purchase Profile Prism without the included IT8 target which will be of little or no use to me?
