[OM] scanning lesson 102 requested

I have some negatives I am scanning with acerscanwit 2720 and vuescan. The
problems I face are sharpness/saturation. If I look at the negative with
a 6x loup I can clearly read words off a boat and see features of people
faces. Yet, when I scan (even at max resolution) these details are lost on
the monitor (I can no longer read the text on the boat even though it is now
much larger). What I normally do is scan the image (using the above) then
load it into photoshop down size to 1:3 and auto adjust colours. (I use
photoshop 5.0LE which came with the acerscanwit). 

Is this a common problem ?

(A sample image is arctic.org/images/boat.jpg - the little 4x6 print looks a
 lot nicer then this scan).

Any suggestions ?

Alan
