When you scan at 7200dpi, do you get a detailed rendition of your film grain? If not, you either (a) have film flatness problems or (b) have a unit which has been dropped in shipping. The comparison images are pretty helpful, and it does look like something's not as it ought to be. Sorry to hear you're having so much trouble. In the meantime thank you very much for your help. Would that make it a purely software issue, that can be performed, for instance, in Photoshop? If calibration is necessary to correct these problems, where should I start. The crisp that was in the original was totally lost. For pictures of flowing water, the scan image will remove most reflections (from the water), or refractions underneath. We had automatic config on (through Silverfast SE) but the colour was basically just really bad, and the scan looks very out of focus.įor instance, if a shot is taken out of a bright sunny day, the scanned image would look like it is taken on a very cloudy day after a rain. The issue here, is that the scanner does not handle bright or dark regions well at the current setting. The films are in focus, and I don't usually see grains unless I magnify them to about 500x. In terms of graininess, I don't have so much problem with that at this moment. So on the computer front, particularly the monitor, I think it is working fine. I have a digital camera, and the print colour was very close to what I saw on screen. The monitor is LCD, and I have not done any "calibration" on it, as far as the colour goes. Yes, this is my first time using a film scanner, and I am using it on my slide films (i.e., positive).
