Thank you very much Douglas, your advice really help me, I'll follow your
indications, I see that with this procedure every picture take a long time,
of course results are better. What I exactly have do is: My Scanner is at a
resolution of 3200 ppp, and I've signalled Colour 48 bit, original image is
64 MB but when I save it in JPEG is 4 MB, (RGB colour mode). Next time I'll
try at 4000 ppp and save as TIFF, but my Scanner is not so good as yours, I
use an Epson 3170.

 Well.... now in Spain is very late 2 a.m. and I go to sleep....

Muchas gracias, saludos desde Barcelona
Luis

Very nice indeed Luis,
I always scan at 4000dpi (Coolscan V ED) get everything you can out of a
slide or negative,I have also found that a scan will hardly ever be as
bright and lucid as a slide, but you can get very close - as we can see
in your picture.
You can always reduce the file size some time later on while processing,
Make a copy of the original file then perform the basic corrections you
need on the full 64MB copy and store the result as a TIFF (no
compression) and use this as a basis for your prints or for posting.
The higher resolution the better during processing, any processes will
of course take longer but will have a better statistical base to work on.
i.e. more real information = less interpolation = better result
cheers
Douglas
