j_d30 Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 <p>Like the attached. How can I do it consistently? My Scanner did this by mistake, when I scanned a color film in B&W, when I scan it in color it does not do it. But it is not reliable. I think it is cool. I can do it digitally through photoshop but it's not the same.... </p> <p>Thanks</p> <div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glen_h Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 <p>I suspect you can do this in Photoshop, or other editing systems, but I haven't tried it.</p> <p>Scanners with film carriers will make it easy, if you load the film offset in the carrier.</p> <p>Which scanner do you have?</p> -- glen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin O Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Your question is not clear. Say in words what you want to achieve. What is the "it" you are referring to? I've no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven_clark Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 <p>Can be done on a flatbed. I Epson software go into the options and turn off auto-thumbnailing, in Vuescan you're looking for settings in the Crop tab. On a film scanner it's often not possible, with only one frame in place to scan at a time. If you crop to the same dimensions, and scan with the same exposure (easier to make happen with Vuescan than manufacturer software) it should be easy enough to fake it later by putting both on a black background.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_d30 Posted March 23, 2016 Author Share Posted March 23, 2016 <p>LesSarlie, thanks for this great suggestion. I did not do that, because with this format I lose so much resolution. So I guess when doing like this you scan at a very very high resolution (which? I have the same scanner).</p> <p>Thanks </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Ingold Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 <p>You can select, copy then paste images using photoshop. If you copy, then open a new file in Photoshop, it will open (optionally) the the size of the file in the clipboard. When you paste, it's always to a new layer. You can use Image/Canvas to increase the size of the background, then copy an past a new image. You can make the background any color you wish, including black. If you include the border when you scan, you can retain the rough edges when you copy and paste. You can use the arrow tool to move the image around it its layer. You can save the results as a PSD or TIFF with layers intact, or flatten it and save it as a JPEG (or any image file type).</p> <p>I haven't deliberately overlapped frames, but have combined multiple film scans into HDR images and panoramas. You lose more to cropping than with digital images, but it's definitely doable. </p> <p>You can also select the scanning area manually to include adjacent frames, and do it <em>au naturel</em>.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
