Rescanning slides
I’ve finally got round to rescanning some of the pictures in the Journeys section of my site. When I originally scanned them I was using a laptop, so couldn’t get much of an idea how light/dark the pictures were, some of them ended up way too dark.
It didn’t help that my scanning software was outputting 16 bit per channel (48 bit per pixel) TIFFs but that Paint Shop Pro just threw away half of those bits on loading the files.
These days I’m using VueScan on my Linux box, so the scanning is much less painful than using Minolta’s horrible software on Windows. It’s still pretty tedious though.
Here’s one of the rescanned pictures:
I’ll be doing some more tomorrow…
