So do I assume correctly that full size of each picture there is actually a full size file? Was the sharpening in photoshop used or any other processing that would influence the result for sharpness?
Again, teh reason I am asking- I was never satisfied with Epson 4990 on MF negatives, you are seems to be OK with it.
Thanks.
No. I don't upload files that large to the LUG Gallery. The files in the LUG Yearbook album are the largest that I upload. They were specifically sized for publication in the LUG Yearbook published by Blurb.
I only use the two sharpening presets found in Lightroom: Hard Edge and Soft Edge, depending on the subject and the effect I want. Until recently I only used Screen Sharpen Low for web files. Lately, I have bumped up to Screen Sharpen Standard. It seems to be ok. I am deathly afraid of over sharpened JPEGs. I cringe whenever I see one on the web.

I'd be leery of placing too strong of a magnet on the scanner. But this should be taken to a different thread as it's getting off topic.
Thanks for your email.
I’m sorry we don’t have this scanner.
If you would like to speak to one of our sales specialists in regards to alternatives please let me know as I can organise for them to contact you. If so, please advise which state you are in and your telephone number.
Thank you.
Kind regards,
I contacted Pro Scan here in Oz and enquired about the Plustek 120 ... ie when might it be available and a predicted price. They advertise themselves as the official distributor for Plustek for Australia and New Zealand.
This is the reply I received today:
What a joke!
I bought my 8100 plustek from digitalcamerawarehouse at almost half the price of 'proscan'. I wouldn't even bother with them personally. I'm sure DCW will stock it.
Expected for delivery November 5th.
