Slide Scanning
Posted: Sun Jan 30, 2005 2:48 pm
Recently I sent few rolls of slide for scanning into digital at my local photo processing lab. The lab technician was using the scanner of the photo processing (Fuji) unit to do the scanning, the outputs are in bmp format with each of the file of 40mb size. However, i found that the quality of the digital format is not refine and the image seems to made up of dots. I am disapointed with the results as i always think (some photography magazine indicate so) that i can get better and refine image if i shoot in slides and convert the image to digital. My questions:
1. Is the quality of my digital files normal?
2. Will i get a better result if i scan with a flat-bed scanner each as Epson 4870 scanner of a Canon 9900?
3. Is bmp the better format to store my scaned images?
