Re: [Leica] scan comparisonHi Brad:
The overwhelming approval seems to be for the 2nd version. Guess I'll =
go with that method!
I am currently scanning with a Polaroid Sprintscan 35 Plus on a =
Dual-Processor Pentium II 300Mhz
with 320MB RAM, and color correcting using a Panasonic PanaSync Pro 17" =
monitor and Matrox
Millenium 8MB video card.
Over the past 2 years, I have used a Nikon F5 with 24, 50, 85, and 180; =
Leica M6HM with 35/2 ASPH,
50/2, 90/2.8, and 90/2; and a Leica R4 and R8 with 35/1.4, 50/2, 80/1.4, =
100/2.8 APO, and 180/2.8 APO.
I believe the Sharon photos were taken with the R8 and 80/1.4.....it was =
many months ago.
Francesco
