okay i give up..
i have version 8.5.19
it seems the best results are given when i just leave everything as is in the advanced tab and make sure that the crop box does not encompass any white/black spots
when i start messing around with the whole lock exposure thing, thats when things go haywire.
however, in both cases, using photoshop or lightroom, when you hit auto white balance, it will still correct it.
perhaps at this point i am just experiencing what the "film" is supposed to look like vs what is really in the scene.

my buddy told me about the base thing, and i did it, but after some reading and review, it seems this is only beneficial for B/W film that would otherwise have difficulty defining black.
when i lock the film base with colour negs, the impact is negligable.

giving vuescan a try, its giving me a pretty consistent blue tint to all my photos
particulary with the fuji x-tra 800 that i'm currently scanning
less so with Ektar
"auto white balance" later fixes the problem, but this takes away from half the point of shooting film.
any suggestions?
im giving vuescan a try because it seems to get more dynamic range out of the pictures compared to Nikon Scan, which for whatever reason really doesnt like highlights.
