thanks for the advice Roland.
I tried locking the settings as vuescan recommends but the brightness
levels where all over the place for the film!
what procedure did you use for manual focus? I played around with it and
found it really difficult to see small changes to the focus on the
previews (800dpi).. it was a SLOW process and I was not convinced I got
anything sharper than the auto focus.

I have not tried scanning as positives only as negatives! I guess at some
point I will still need to invert the colours
