Jeff. Your KAS scanner sounds fascinating. I cannot find any information on the net regarding it's operation. Do you have a website? Have you pulled off all your PDFs regarding your work for the Smithsonian? Is your stated pixel dimensions close to 3, 3.5 or 4k resolution. We have still not managed to capture all the incredible information latent in 1 micron film particles.
Are you under the impression I have not been able to scan my UP8 footage? I have been getting 12 bit overscanned 2080x870 pixel x 24 (bit depth) sequential jpegs from bitworks.org. John Gledhill utilizes his own custom sprocketless 16mm transfer bay. I just received 12 bit scans from framediscreet.com utlizing their custom sprocket driven 16mm bay. Their deliverables included 2x stacked UP8 2.8:1 frames per overscanned 16mm frame which I crop in Sony Vegas. Did you ever complete your 16/8mm desktop scanner projects? Cheers!
