This forum is a great resource.Topaz Labs has released Topaz Studio 2, the latest version of its image post-processing software. Take no offense at this, could be a better way, or best way to skin the cat. Would like to hear from Mark re your suggested WF of native 4k scans then down sampled. Final finessing will be done there in LR with the New Masters. Those files will become my Masters, imported into a different lrcat. When all the processing is done I will export everything from a LR Working lrcat. Can I do the downsampling out of SF HDR Studio? Not concerned about file sizes as it will all be done on an external drive. I'll get what I can from each image.īart, your last post is very interesting. It is for the Swami to toss out poor shots if he wishes. I do not see film grain issues, but I may not know how to recognize that. Maybe the dark is my poor development of 2 years ago. Seem a little overall dark, noise present in shadows. I just looked at 50 Kodachrome slides shot by a professional from a raft trip on the Colorado River thru Grand Canyon in 1993.

I know about the issue of grain alaising but with SF8 it's usually pretty safe to ignore it. You should select the resolution that will cover for the largest size print you intend to make at the native resolution of the printer (e.g. It is not necessary to scan at the maximum resolution of the scanner. This is not a plug because whether a I sell a copy more or less I don't care, but just so you'll know - I cover most of this in considerable detail in my ebook available from the SilverFast website however, a lot of it, a bit more dated, also appears in articles I've published on this website you can consult easily if your LuLa membership is active. Use Photokit Sharpener for capture and output sharpening. For reducing the visual effect of grain a number of applications are about as good, however I would give a slight edge to Neat Image for this purpose.
