She was using the 24-105, no? I shot at 109 mm = 218 mm, FF AOV, so I was able
to pick just the most photogenic part.
And it's been messed with. ;-)

No sort of sharpening or deconvolution will help that sort of artifacts. A
Gaussian Blur of a little over 1 and Focus
Magic of 4-5 improves it a lot. Still nothing like what's on the film ...
Or downsample without and sharpness treatment, then FM, radius 1 looks pretty
good, perhaps a little cleaner.

Maybe, but I'm not sure how much.

No, I'd be happy to scan some negs. The scanning really doesn't take much of my
time. VueScan keeps the scanner busy
without my involvement, while I am doing other things.

Then who will give you the time to set it up and use it? :-)
