![]() ![]() The boxes are eventbased, and not always full.Īll pictures are on a desktop PC in Shotwell (earlier they were in F-spot), and are backed up once a month using deja dup. I also work out when the slides in the box were taken, and add that using exiftool in the linux terminal, which allows batchcommands. This is abit of a problem, I am reluctant to bin boxes with a few good slides in it. The number is based on which box, and which position on the projector carrier. ![]() For important shots I keep the original The 1080p copies get a letter a (or b,c.) after the number. I do not see the difference though, if I make both versions fullscreen. I have a DELL XPS now with 1800p vertical, so maybe I go up to that. The last bit is scaling the pictures down to a 1080p vertical. In the rest of the week I split those pictures out and work them up, in Gimp. The slides are pretty clean anyway, but the negatives is something else. One evening I scan mostly at 3600 dpi into 16 bit TIFF. In wintertime I do 1 box, which is up to 100 slides, per week. In as far as whole carrier boxes containing Blaustich stuff, those have been binned. Stupid enough the original Agfachrome does not have the problem and was cheaper! All these are in good nick now. ![]() They suffered from progressive "Blaustich" (bluecast?). I have also taken to V700-ing my mainly 35 mm slides.įirst priority was to rescue my Agfachrome Professional slides. Then when I need something even better I can go back to the original image and manually tweak it.ĭoes that make sense or not? Also, besides DIGITAL ICE is there any other optimization (unsharp mask, etc) that should be performed during scanning rather than afterwards? Then later on I can have Photoshop of some other program do batch processing to create (automatically) optimized images doing all those corrections. The only thing I would enable is DIGITAL ICE because that's actually something that only can be done during scanning. So I wonder if it might be better to just scan at the scanners max settings (6400 dpi, 48-bit color) and not enable any unsharp mask, grain reduction, color restoration, backlight correction and dust removal. Others have some minor scratches, etc.Ĭonsidering the above, I would have to optimize settings for each slide/negative which is not only very time consuming but I also don't feel confident I will select the best options. Others are just not well exposed but they are important enough that I want to keep them. Some of the slides/negatives are pretty old and colors are off. I have a bunch of slides and negatives I want to scan with my Epson Perfection V700 scanner. ![]()
