On <http://hugin.sourceforge.net/> you can see a panorama of mine shot in my hometown on a very bright day. Velvia slide film was used and scanned with a better Imacon. They claim 4.6 and they have. On the scans the sun is slightly outblown. Detail is everywhere in the darkest parts with a magenta cast. Nearly all my images are processed this way and thus far superior to any digital backs I have seen except of the Spheron HDR scancamera. Slide film can nothing do about insufficient scanners. regards Kai-Uwe Behrmann + development for color management + imaging / panoramas + email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] + http://www.behrmann.name ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Oracle Space Sweepstakes Want to be the first software developer in space?
