Acer,
I'm not sure what method NG was using in the '90s to transfer
transparencies to print but they were using Kodachrome for many
years. Look for a person in a red shirt to tell. (That is a lame reference
to their photographers trying to add a little punch to the photos by
utilizing Kodachrome's strength in rendering reds).
In the '70s a transparency was separated, by using filters, into four
primary colored + b&w monochrome negatives which were then burned onto
aluminum (aluminium) plates for the press. Sometimes a mask was added to
control contrast.
Gregg
looking thru some early 1990s national geographics. there is something
about the photos, that, to me, scream kodachrome. is that the case, did ng
shoot lots of kchrome back then? or it is just scanning back then was
different than now?
