[Leica] IMG: KC Corners

[Tina Manley]

Alan,

You must be on the digest.  I have posted the original scan and an
in-camera dupe without any processing.
Nathan's photos, like 99% of those posted here, are digital.
My photos are scans of Kodachrome from 1986.  That is totally different.
You cannot compare them.

I am continuing to experiment with different ways to scan the Kodachromes
and like the in-camera dupes so far.  I hope I'll have time to work on some
more of those, but most of my slides have already been scanned with the
Nikon LS5000 and Vuescan.  I'm not going to give up on these historical
photos since they are selling very well as stock.  Of all of the stock I
sold last year, 1/3 were archival scans.  Nobody seems to mind that they
are old - maybe that's the reason they sold.
