Doc Henry Posted August 11, 2017 Author Share #38121 Posted August 11, 2017 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) The peculiar picture of the lilies looked like this when imported into LR: Not particularly interesting. Looking at the develop actions in its history, I cropped, tweaked the clarity, converted to B&W and decreased the blue and aqua to darken the sky, then did the split toning. I don't really know why it ended up looking so over-processed, but it took on that appearance when I set the amount of highlight saturation for the split-toning. I guess the lesson is do to as little as possible to film scans. C. Chris in my opinion it's better you keep this picture for the color , the rose is beautiful the rest is less important. Lilies are difficult to have a nice rendering , may be in black but you lose color and may be in macro. In your place , I'll take these flowers nearer like with your Vario Elmar 80-200 Thank you for showing your work Best Henry Edited August 11, 2017 by Doc Henry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But...with slide scans, I find I am pulling my hair out getting my slide scans to look like they do on the light table. It's alway a big disappointment when I see the scan. Makes me want to forget about color slide and just shoot digital (sorry Henry), especially after seeing Wattsy's website with some of his M9 images. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gnuyork Posted August 11, 2017 Share #38133 Posted August 11, 2017 Henry, with digital, I think there will always be a need for processing the RAW file unless you shoot jpgs, but I find that with RAW there is a lot more flexibility. I do agree that digital is sometimes too sharp, but I think there are ways to curb that in processing. When I process my digital files, I strive to make them as film-like as I can. I have several digital cameras, but none can give me the color of slide film, but one does come closer than the others and that's a SIGMA Foveon camera. Don't worry, lately I still prefer film, but I really wish I could get my slides right. It's always such a let down, especially right after viewing them on a light table. Maybe it's my lack of understanding my scan software (VueScan). 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wattsy Posted August 11, 2017 Share #38135 Posted August 11, 2017 What's the crisis? Well, this camera is really quite hard to focus. The pseudo-split image is OK when it doesn't black out in one half or the other, but the collar of microprisms are nearly worthless. Wearing glasses it is nearly impossible to focus. Without them, and having adjusted the viewfinder's optical correction for my very mild right eye myopia I can make some sense of the microprisms. I don't really like the fake split-image devices on SLR focusing screens, but I'm going to have to use it if I'm going to keep this. The second issue is that the ergonomics of the R9 body aren't suiting me. It's not safe to carry the camera in the right hand by the grip alone - it's neither big enough for my palm, nor deep enough to hold with my fingers in a pincer grip. I probably ought not to say this on this forum, but I'm missing the F6 when I use this lumpenkamera, as I can simply get on and make the photo with my F6s and don't have to struggle against the camera. I do the composition and envisage the result in terms of aperture and shutter speed, they do the rest. Chris, have you considered converting the mounts to Nikon (Leitax?) and using the F6? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's my lack of understanding my scan software (VueScan). Yes GNU I agree . When I used my M digital I always Post Processed in DNG or RAW as you said , never Jpeg. Even I did it , in DNG the color of digital is not faithful and "approximate" as I said (you all have seen my comparison color film versus digital). You have software to attenuate the sharpness and add grains ..... but put grains by modifying , "smoothing" "square pixels" * is never similar with natural grain of film , its IMO not possible to have the same aspect.That's also the reason you have no "nuance" when you watch digit pictures ! nuance contributes to bring this "soul" in film who lacks in digital. An example , compare and look "pores of skin" (I did it and already show you , see my previous posts) it doesn't look like pores ! Foveon sensor ** has a good point , it has 3 layers of RGB (RedGreenBlue) and color is a little similar with film but lines and edges are still digital ie sharp , sometimes too sharp ! Finally digital always needs correction and post processing (PP) Best Henry * the only thing the stupid robot camera knows and can do ** https://www.chassimages.com/forum/index.php/topic,215681.0.html https://www.chassimages.com/forum/index.php/topic,215687.0.html https://www.chassimages.com/forum/index.php/topic,215682.0.html Edited August 11, 2017 by Doc Henry 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
