Doc Henry Posted January 30, 2018 Author Share #46685 Posted January 30, 2018 (edited) Mike if I understand your latest approach, you have acknowledged that the scanner is just that. Not a 'correction' device. Photoshop and other software was designed for that function. I set my scanner up simply to extract the maximum data from the film, which invariably will result in a flat looking file. Then you have the option of selecting the dynamic range you want using your preferred PP software. The result is always superior. By scanning as a tiff or jpeg the same technique works equally well. John and Mike, In the "can's worms" ** that someone here qualified my post on the size of the Tiff versus DNG , that I will answer soon when I will have some time with documents and photos to support , it's better you save in Tiff (Microsoft) not in Jpeg which is compressed I will come back in my reply because of ability to correct with Tiff better than with JPEG same notice for Raw-DNG (Adobe) better than Jpeg Best Henry ** I was very shocked and saddened this lack of consideration towards me , that I consider as an insult Edited January 30, 2018 by Doc Henry 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
philipus Posted January 30, 2018 Share #46686 Posted January 30, 2018 The gates to access the building were closed. This is shot through the gates actually. But the grounds themselves were completely open. It surprised me actually how easy it was to enter all of these properties. No questions asked anywhere. Thanks. What an elegant place. We went past on bikes 2 years ago. No change to get past the gates. Lovely photograph. A mother consoles her child in a doctor's waiting room.

sblitz Posted January 30, 2018 Share #46688 Posted January 30, 2018 I get my film scanned by the same lab that develops it, and I always ask for 24MB TIFF files. My experience with these is that there is a lot of latitude in CaptureOne to alter the picture. Admittedly it is not a malleable as a DNG from my Q, but plenty of room to shape the picture if need be. Generally speaking, I do a lot less with the film shots other than crop and adjust a bit the exposure/brightness. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Henry Posted January 31, 2018 Author Share #46696 Posted January 31, 2018 (edited) Henry, you please need to clearly explain your allegation of insult, following your quote of my post. I have neither made or intended such a thing. Sorry John for this misunderstanding but it was not for you. Simply I take this opportunity to tell that person who qualified my post of "can's worms" about the Tiif versus DNG files, that I would like to inform here on the film thread that save in Tiff (that is created by Microsoft) and that is used by graphic artists and other professions is better than Jpeg .... and also RAW - DNG created by Adobe (Raw being data in digital and which must be converted into DNG) in order to standardize Raw and used now by Leica , Pentax .... the difference between Tiff and Raw-DNG is huge 10 times more depending on the 16 bits choice (if you use Adobe Lightroom or Adobe Photoshop) for Tiff and DNG So John this part of my post is to show the importance of knowing these notions when you save your images. I will come back soon and I will answer with documents and photo support when I have time. Have a nice day All Best Henry Edited January 31, 2018 by Doc Henry 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkassenkunde Posted January 31, 2018 Share #46698 Posted January 31, 2018 First off I'd really like to say how much I'm enjoying the pictures you and Edward are posting from Wadi Rum - they are just fantastic - what a landscape! Am I right in thinking you're in Germany, James? If so, I'd suggest you get one of your most valued colour pictures carefully scanned and prepared, and do as Adam does and have it printed at White Wall: https://us.whitewall.com/ I have one of Adam's beautiful photos at home, printed by them and it is absolutely superb - by far the nicest printing job I've seen (although full credit of course to the photographer!). Unfortunately their shipping charges to Australia are prohibitive, otherwise I'd be getting some of my own done - but as they're based in Germany it should be far more reasonable for you. Getting an inkjet printer is a good option - they are probably far more reliable now - but inks are still expensive and the printers tend to take up a fair bit of room at home. I have an old Epson R2880 which makes beautiful prints - perhaps you could try something like that (I'd get something a bit newer) and then resell it secondhand if it doesn't work out for you. There is a fair bit to learn, though, about getting the best out of a print - colour spaces and soft proofing, different papers, monitor calibration through to mounting, framing and so on. I have been to a few workshops to get some skill at it, but I still feel I have a lot to learn. Anyway, good luck with whatever you decide - I think you'll find that having some of your pictures hanging on the wall adds a whole new dimension to your photography. Whoa, Edward, this is sooo cool! And the colors are exceptional! James - equally very cool and great colors! Having these photos side by side is very special, indeed!! Thank you! Wow, Stefan! Incredible!! Congrats! This is beautiful, Pete. If I am not mistaken, I think I recall seeing some photos from Richard Parker from this event in the past? In any case, I love the toning, and tones I have that same lens and love it. Love this one, Paul. A classic brilliantly executed! James - Sincere thanks for all of your thoughtful and kind remarks . On your question of printing, like Phil said, I use Whitewall in Germany. I do so b/c they offer Fuji Flex high gloss photo paper at VERY good prices. For color prints especially (although as an outside the box thought it is actually good for B&W photos as well), I cannot recommend this paper highly enough. It is probably the most expensive color photo paper on the market. I mean, really expensive. But the output is nothing short of exceptional. It is the modern day Cibachrome paper equivalent; you'd hardly (if at all) be able to tell the difference. The best thing about this paper is that it is VERY flattering to film scans, which are inherently a little softer than digital files. The Fuji Flex paper very much flatters edges of subjects and is naturally a very sharp paper. And it is virtually noise free. Whitewall offers a "proofing" service whereby you can purchase a print with a "sample photograph" watermark for 20% of the price of the print; and the print can be in any size. So from time to time I will want to confirm that an image will print well and I'll order a 20'x20' proof and it will cost me about $20 including shipping (which is b/n $7-$9) and it arrives within a week. James, Translucent, delicate.....finite and graphically poinete! Well done. Lovely shot with an engaging perspective. Thank you all for your kind comments, they are much appreciated! Regarding the printing options I think I will give White Wall a try. Thanks for the hint on the Fujiflex paper! I visited the Berlin store a few times and am convinced about the quality of their products. So far I was not sure if my pictures need and deserve such a premium quality, but on the other hand a good print is much more valuable than a good file on my computer. I got two prints (from digital Leica X1 files) made on Epson inkjet printers (SC-P600 or SC-P800) at the Photokina some years ago, and they are very much to my liking. Maybe I should postpone my decision about buying a printer untill next Photokina, where I could do some test prints from my analog files first. Anyway; I will let you know about my experiences with White Wall soon! 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
