I've managed to get an image that I'd like to submit for Tope 16 but I can't
get the original scan to compress sufficiently and still produce a good
screen display. Normally I scan to 4000dpi (Nikon 4000ED) and reduce this to
72dpi in several steps with a little unsharp at each stage. Mostly this
works for an 'acceptable' result but sometimes (and in this case) the end
result is too poor to use.
Does anybody know of an idiots guide to scanning for screen output? I
suspect I need to rescan at a lower initial resolution, maybe 1600dpi? Also
I'm now using, and very impressed with, Kodak Portra 400 UC instead of my
usual Fuji Superia 200.
Thanks
Ian
