Re: uncurve/curve comparison on Loris' website
My mistake then. It sounds like you have been able to calibrate a curve that works well for you.

That was in a different thread altogether; I was discussing curves for gum in general, and to illustrate a point, I was describing some curves and charts people have sent to me over time as examples of "good" gum curves, that fit that description. They were generated, actually, from the PDN system (although I didn't mention that because I didn't think it was germane to the discussion). But no, I wasn't describing any curve of my own, nor do my curves fit that description. kt Best Wishes, Mark Nelson Precision Digital Negatives - The System PDNPrint Forum at Yahoo Groups www.MarkINelsonPhoto.com ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com |
