Superior Scanning
At long last, we are now able to get good scans of our medium format and large format negatives and slide films! Yahoo! To begin with, our first scan was of the 2 lovely transparencies shot of the Holy Rosary church in Brickfields, KL. They were shot on an unusually nice day with the Graflex Super Graphic 4 x 5 press camera and a few sheets of Kodak EPP 100 film. The result of that outing are the following 2 shots.
The scans were performed at 800 dpi, giving 11 megapixel output files. They are completely grain free (not to mention dust free) and very sharp indeed. I couldn't possibly ask for more. Just to give you a taste of how well the scanner performed and how good the 40 year old Kodak lens is, have a look at the following 2 100% crops taken from the first shot.
Lens: single coated Kodak Ektar 127mm f/4.7

That's really quite spectacular. The colours are amazing.
Indeed most spectacular. The Aussie would say "awesome" althought personally I would not use that word willy nilly! I think spectacular as Tigs said is the correct word to describe it - the picture quality that is. And it captures all the intricate lettice work too!
