Finally go the scanner working right. 35MM, TRI X baby. Nikkormat with 35 Nikkor. Here's some hints for those that need them. My pain is your gain. For black and white negs scan 16 bit at 400 DPI or as close as you can. It will give you a great 12 X 17 inch print if you want. I'm using an Epson 3590 with Vuescan software. Get it. And Lightroom rocks. I just wish it wasn't an Adobe product. There, I just gave you info that cost me 3 weeks of dinking around.

Film at 11...

Ok I got the "film" back from the "lab." And I had them scan them into digital land too... Well they were supposed to do big honk'n files but they did little crap files and heck I paid for big honk'n file so I guess I will go back and run the risk of them losing the "transparencies" one more time. This was one of those pro joints with 3000 euro bodies just begging you to fork it over... I might as well have went to foto-casita. Dang!



Anyway all said there are some winners in the "roll." Here's one. What a lovely guy. Obviously he hasn't been spending his golden years dealing with Telefonica. I'll flickr 'em when I get the real deal scans in or I pop for a "pro" scanner and do it myself. I think "pro" scanners are going for like 11.95 now. If I wait until tuesday they will probably be giving them away with a bag of spaghetti.
