I borrowed a Konica Hexar AF - I used one a few years ago and I was amazed at the clarity and sharpness - however, the rolls of film I have just scanned look flat and muddy, lacking that beautiful sharpness.
I bought some Kodak Colour Plus film from eBay - 200 iso - it doesn't expire until 2020. It was cheap, though. Seems to be plenty of it around.
I had the film developed in a Supermarket lab to save a few ££
I also have a thin, good quality filter on the lens for protection- never made any difference before.
I have attached two images - I zoomed in twice on the image on my Mac and took screen shots. Here, I would expect real clarity - it's grainy, muddy and flat - no sharpness.
I'm guessing it's poorly stored film/poor developing?
Film is so expensive to shoot, so it's a process of elimination before I shoot more, hopefully with better results! Thanks
