andybarton Posted May 9, 2007 Share #1 Posted May 9, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) I thought that this was a quite interesting comparison. [ATTACH]36903[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]36904[/ATTACH] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted May 9, 2007 Posted May 9, 2007 Hi andybarton, Take a look here Astia vs DMR orchids . I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Artichoke Posted May 9, 2007 Share #2 Posted May 9, 2007 that the second is from the DMR film has some advantages, but not many very pretty phal, btw Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted May 9, 2007 Author Share #3 Posted May 9, 2007 I was interested in the textures in the petals in each shot. I shall have a play with some of the pink examples later. The colour on the slide is very subtle - I think it is something to do with Lightroom being used as the RAW developer. I will try with Capture One instead at the weekend.

psquared Posted May 9, 2007 Share #4 Posted May 9, 2007 Interesting comparison, indeed. I, too, think the second one is from DMR. The perspectives may have been slightly different, but should the bokeh on the bottom left of #2 have been seen in #1 as well? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stunsworth Posted May 9, 2007 Share #5 Posted May 9, 2007 The second one looks sharper and the colours are a little more saturated, I'd go for that being the DMR one. Whichever is the DMR or Astia, I think it shows that digital can hold its own in the highlight department. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted May 9, 2007 Author Share #6 Posted May 9, 2007 The perspectives may have been slightly different, but should the bokeh on the bottom left of #2 have been seen in #1 as well? Maybe... Bear in mind that a DMR sits at least an inch above an R4 on the tripod stand... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
leicamann Posted May 10, 2007 Share #7 Posted May 10, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) Andy its really hard to tell from a scan..your scanner is = to a 4 megapix sensor..so it really can't fully capture the detail..now put your Astia on a Hasselblad Flexlite..or an Aztec drum scanner..then we can start talking shop..so it really isn't fair game..the tortoise is adapted to land..the sea turtle to the ocean..the sea turtle cannot walk on land as the tortoise does..

JE Posted May 10, 2007 Share #8 Posted May 10, 2007 Andy, I have no idea which is which, but I do know that you've captured the texture very nicely. It was the first thing I noticed. Jonathan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted May 12, 2007 Author Share #9 Posted May 12, 2007 I know what you mean, John, but the Nikon scanner produces larger files (In terms of dimensions and tiff-size) than the DMR Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
leicamann Posted May 12, 2007 Share #10 Posted May 12, 2007 I know what you mean, John, but the Nikon scanner produces larger files (In terms of dimensions and tiff-size) than the DMR Sure ..so does my flatbed..file size is not resolution /detail/lens/sensor /...quality. The true test would be if your Nikon scanner had the exact or similar sensor to the DMR..then I think you'd be blown away by the quality of your scans.

dezyme Posted May 17, 2007 Share #13 Posted May 17, 2007 10 minutes in Photoshop and you can get them to look much closer (without cloning from one to the other). Here's the 1st one (astia?) after some selective saturation, color balance and sharpening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
