Can anyone point to a drum scanning facility in Orlando for 5 x 4 negs/trannies at upto 5000 dpi

<p>

Thanks in advance

I have done some experiments digitising film to see what you can get

out of it and does appear that the limiting factor is lens technology.

<p>

You can see the grain in Provia F at about 6000 dpi but above 3-4000

dpi the lenses I have used have not provided any more information.

<p>

At 3000 dpi this produces a 720 MegaPixel image (2 GBytes (24 bit)).

<p>

If you are interested the results of scans at 1600, 3000, 6000 and

12,000 dpi they are at:-

<p>

Viewing the images requires your browser to run a Java applet. I will

have a none java system by the end of the month.

Any and all comments welcomed

I would be happy to host better quality images to show off the

sofware to it's optimum.

<p>

If you wish to do so I will set up an ftp area for you.

We have developed a multiple resolution image server for delivering large images over the internet and allowing the user to zoom and manipulate the image.

A demo can be seen at:

This was taken with a 10 x 8 Arca with an ARCA 10 x 8 and a Schiender 165 mm on Provia F.

<p>

Scanned on an Epson at 1600 dpi to produce an image of over 500 MBytes

All comments would be welcomed

We are releasing Beta test software later this week.
