The past few days I've been housebound with a nasty digestive "issue," so I had a bit of time to fool with the picture. A local camera shop developed the negs in Xtol and scanned them on a Noritsu scanner at 1544x1042. Like all photofinishers, they juice up the contrast a bit too much on the scanner. I rescanned the Tri-X neg on my Canon FS-4000. While I was at it, I posted a comparison between the two scans. There are two pictures at standard Web-page resolution, and two little snippets at 1:1, the Noritsu enlarged to a similar size. M6TTL, 50/1.5 Nokton, probably wide open at 1/60. http://users.2alpha.com/~pklein/family/06Milt.htm Verdict: The low-res Noristsu scans are OK for a 5x7 if they don't totally blow the whites. For an 8x10 or bigger, I need to scan them myself. --Peter
