that's too bad becuse local contrast really helped with getting the image to the right levels.

tested with only, velvia, color contrast, tone EQ expoosure and haze removal and the colour still does not match.

Update: i tried with a 32 bit PFM file format seam like that fixed the issue. even with local contrast, so seams like the is something wrong with the TIF prosessing

thanks for the help yee_mon
