I'm hoping to hear from anyone who has experience or expertise in creating a setup that produced excellent digital images for large format printing. Capability to focus and resolve grain in 16mm prints is critical, as well as producing files equivalent to 4K pixel dimensions (or higher). As an example I've recently been impressed by the quality of the Peter Hutton Film Stills exhibited at Shoshanna Wayne Gallery: http://shoshanawayne.com/peter-hutton-film-stills/43inytqgn0w6pule0fc1clu8xltuwg (if anyone knows who worked on producing these enlargements I'd love to get in contact). I'm aware of methods using consumer flatbed document scanners but have never been satisfied with results. I've heard of (but never tried) using special 16mm dimension slide duplicator mounts for 35mm slr cameras - I imagine this only worked for single frame enlargements, not frame sequences. Buying a 4k films scanner definitely isn't in the budget either. Any suggestions or advice will be much appreciated. -Seth _______________________________________________ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com<mailto:FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com> https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks Sherman George sgeo...@ucsd.edu<mailto:sgeo...@ucsd.edu> 858-229-4368
