When you're scanning Polaroid photographs, you
must adjust the exposure settings differently than
for conventionally developed photographs. These
Polaroid modes automatically adjust exposure
and size the image area. For Polaroids taken with
a Spectra camera, select Spectra Polaroid. For
pictures taken with a Polaroid 600 camera, select
600 Polaroid. See Scanning Polaroid
Photographs for details.
