Re: Unclogging printer head

2021-02-19 Thread David Mann
Thanks for the advice, I'll see if I can find some time to look at Vuescan 
again.

It was a long time ago but I think my issue was that it may have been applying 
incorrect gamma curves to each channel, or something like that.  Perhaps it 
related to a film-type setting.  Whatever it was, I could just never get the 
colours right in Photoshop.  If I can figure that out it'll make things a lot 
easier.

Cheers,
Dave

The F-3200 isn't a flatbed and Epson don't support it anymore.

https://www.pocket-lint.com/cameras/reviews/68178-epson-f-3200-film-scanner-multi-format

That being said, I've always found the Epson software to be a right
royal PITA. This doesn't have to mean much, as I'm also a passionate
hater of Silverfast.

I've been used to Vuescan for all my scanners, from the HP Photosmart
for which it was originally created through various Nikon and Epson
scanners to my current Minolta 5400 and said Epson F-3200.

As they say here: One man's owl is another man's nightingale. Boat

Last night I shot my wife, Charmaine, in Portrait mode. Since Portrait mode 
includes some in-camera shenanigans to blur the background, it can’t be 
combined with RAW mode, but It’s handy for quick portraits. This was shot with 
the telephoto lens which is 65 mm equivalent. A bit of retouching as one must

I've just scanned a heap of 20+ year old old b/w and colour negative
films with Vuescan and an Epson F-3200 (not Perfection 3200!) and the
colours are mostly acceptable. Getting them right while printing in the
darkroom used to be a lot more hassle.

I don't do any colour correction in Vuescan, save the scans as 24 bit
TIFF files and do all the rest in DxO Photolab 4 in the same way as I
treat my digital RAW files.

Maybe you'd like to try the current version of Vuescan. Do stay away
from the built-in film profiles. I leave the setting under the Color tab
at "Generic Colour Negative" and usually get results that can easily be
tweaked into something quite acceptable.

Here's a few I've scanned over the last days. The first one is from the
very first colour neg film I've ever developed myself. Click on the
