What about using using a sacrificial frame to photograph a reflective calibration target (IT8 or Gretag-Macbeth Digital Color Checker SG) and then generating an icc profile for a particular film? It is not clear to me why this is not done with C41 negative film, yet it is common practice with slide film and some digital cameras.

It will take an act of god to get me to shoot color neg again, primarily because the longevity of the color balance isn't as good as slide film. Plus, I prefer the quality of E6 emulsions.

 

As for VueScan, while it has a lot of settings that can help with problem shots, I find it's best not to over do the adjustments. Turning too many knobs will kill the rabbit. :)
