Gidday there hoe are you?

I hope this helps a little, as I use one of these all the time.

You have done almost right by turning off auto scan etc, but turn it back 
on for the preview only.
Then, when you have completed the first preview of the image to scan set up 
your levels etc how you want them, and press scan in the normal way.

Then... without touching any controls!! remove the film holder from the 
scanner and move the neg or trannie along the mask ready for the next scan 
to be stitched. Replace the holder and press scan. DO NOT DO ANY PREVIEWS 
OR ANY OTHER BUTTONS!   JUST PRESS SCAN.
You should end up with two images opened in your photoshop or whatever 
window that match exactly in colour and density. I find that using this 
method I can stitch clear bright blue skies without any corrections or 
manipulation at all, not even a line.

Lets know how you get on
