The shot was taken with 10D and OM 75-150mm, there was no sharpen applied. I
expected you mean my shot is low in contrast but my monitor shown the
contrast is on the high side of my taste.

Can't found the same flower shot with slide, there are a few other with RDP
III, check and tell me what do you think about them, the image contrast is
very similar to what I have seen on the slides. No color adjustment after
scan, only minor contrast curve and slight sharpen applied.
