Another question:
It is my understanding that once these interpositives are made
they are scanned on a flat-bed scanner and then brought into
Photoshop for additional manipulations.
What if you were to make a print on glossy paper instead and
then scan that, this would mean that you do not have to spend more
money for the flat-bed scanner for light attachment to handle
films.
I am assuming that there must be significant advantages to using
sheet film as opposed to glossy paper. Is this the case?
I am wondering since I have seen prints made with paper negatives
and they can be wonderful. And, I know that a sheet of Multigrade paper (or Panlure if you are working from colour originals) is a
lot less costly than 8"x10" T-max film.
So far I have avoided doing the scanning myself, I've sent out my
slides and negatives and had Photo-CD's made. I've found it to be
an economical way of getting images scanned and a put onto a stable
medium.
Best Regards to all.
