I feel your pain. I lost about four years' work due to a hardware failure (exacerbated by my own stupidity) and have hardly picked up a camera since. -- %(real_name)s Pentax-Discuss Mail List To unsubscribe send an email to pdml-le...@pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Sorry to hear about your troubles, Rick. Sometimes I feel that you are to computers what Dave Brooks is to spell-checkers.

Computers! Aargh!
I’ve accumulated a lot of photos recently, from travel and walks through groves of autumn color. Today I sat down to post some. But… When I launched Lightroom the window that should have displayed the photos was blank. Both my primary and secondary external hard drives had errors that Disk Utility couldn’t fix. I have no idea why. Not sure how to approach this yet, but I will likely spend several more hours sorting things out. Sometimes I really miss film, a light box, and a loupe.

V39 scan samples
(Second try responding to Stan's post:) The photo of your grandmother is not sharp, so not much is gained by any resolution > 300. The pic of your granddad is likely a professional photo and this will provide somewhat more details at higher resolution (> 300). However what gets worse is that part of the right side of his face is shown to be covered with weathering effects of the picture surface (fungi?), which makes the end result at higher resolutions unacceptable in my opinion as it would not be easy to retouch. Sharpening and adding more contrast in photoshop will make this weathering even worse.
