Hum. Obviously, I disagree, and note, it's not just after scanning but after scanning and letting the scanner do setpoints and tonal curves. If you get raw data, well, obviously, you have to do all your adjusting after the scan! You should either get raw data from the scanner, or do the setpoints/tonal curves "correctly" in the scanner software. Keep in mind, every time you re-do setpoints/tonal curves, you are degrading the data. It's just a fact of how setpoints/tonal curves work. What the significance of that degradation is, will vary greatly, so it may not be *that* bad...but why do things twice when you can do them right the first time? > Getting the *right* 24 > bits can sometimes better be done with an image editing program than the > scanner's interface. I understand that some scanner software is lacking, and that is where you simply should get raw data from the scanner, and learn how to do a better job of setpoints and tonal curves in PS.
