Are you able to eliminate scanning artefacts? If one was photographed at the end of one day and the next at the start of the next, you might get appreciable differences between the two. FWIW, the file creation dates in the metadata are less than two minutes apart, so I suspect that they probably refer to the time of the compression, not the time of the scanning. :-o

I'm not sure which artifacts you are referring to. So far, through 68 folios (I'm dying for MrSIDs of the 68rs!), there have only been two which needed any correction (just a tweak in brightness). No gamma corrections needed so far. Most of what I've been doing is scale, rotation and alignment so that each folio is precisely registered. Primarily I'm using the GC Binding Alignment Technique (c) to align the recto to the verso with the Pelling Stain Alignment Method (c) for double accuracy. ;-) The following verso is registered via a tedious Flickering Transparency/Pelling Stain hybrid. That's it really. Given the quality of the images, I'm avoiding any unnecessary image enhancement. My main goal is to create a printable - or simply viewable - recreation of the physical MS.
