I was trying to champion the hybrid cause with film then scan etc. So you do have a digital workflow with only the initial capture traditional. That's my own chosen way as well. No way it's less work or more efficient, but I believe has a number of advantages, from the transparencies as your archival medium through the huge tonal range extracted from the film by a good scan to the ability to output on your own or commercial print setup.

Drop the cans into the prolab on the way to work. Pick the processed trannies up after work or at lunch time if I can't wait. Check em out with a loupe that night. Stick the page of trannies in between the pages of Ted Grant's book to flatten them, with some telephone books on top to help. Scan the good ones a week or so later with a Minolta 5400 II, to 42 megapixel resolution!!! Print the really good ones to A4 on an Epson 2400. The rare stunner gets printed to 20 x 30" by the lab. Hang some in a local gallery. Sell one every year or so. :-D Too easy. :-) Rick. http://gallery.leica-users.org/Nature On 13/09/2006, at 8:51 PM, G Hopkinson wrote: > What is your workflow after capture on the lovely Fuji transparency > film, Rick? _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
