Sharing samples w Plustek 7200 i

[er_tomo]

Hi,

 

Finally, I decided to share samples of my scanning results w Plustek 7200i.

This negative film was taken w aging SLR of my late father Canon New F1 at the

year of 1998 on Fuji Superia ISO 100. It is not too old negative actually, but

I wasn�t properly handling this negative which creates hairy cracking on this

film.

Here are same images that I scanned w different software.

1.The first images used bundled Silverfast SE w its iSRD (infrared) was

setting at 18 & its SRD (software) set off, Noise reduction �GENE� set to low.

I am so impressed on how this software brings back this fading colour to alive

wo hard working effort. Its ACR is very wonderful although I think its iSRD is

too mediocre. Patched pixels look like water colour filter on PShops program.

2.The second one w popular Hamrick�s Vuescan software, infrared filter set

heavy

I like the results how this software did pixels mapping, although I have to

work hard to get its colour back.

3. The third one , same as number 2 but its infrared filter turn off.

I realize both infrared dust & sctatch removal is far from perfect but give us

less time to get finalized images in photoshops program.

I�m not a professional photographer and like to hear other people safe their

old day�s memory on this digital age.

Thanks for the comments.

Only the crops are really useful to see how the scanner is doing, and I think the Vuescan/Silverfast difference is mainly due to differences in focus.

 

To compare sharpness and resolution, noise reduction and sharpening should be set to off, and with my scanner at least, Vuescan's IR filter should only be used on "light"- you might want to post a comparison of heavy vs light to see how much detail it obliterates.
