DSLR vs. FILM SCAN COMPARISON
IMAGES LAKE HENSHAW, SAN DIEGO COUNTY |
| This page contains a two image comparison between the Canon 10D and a Provia F ISO100 film scan. The 10D image was shot in camera RAW and converted with Adobe's Camera RAW plugin. Defaults were used for conversion except no sharpening was applied. The 10D image was then resampled up to 5500X3600 pixels in Photoshop using bicubic interpolation. This was done to produce a digital image from the 10D which was the same size as the 4000 dpi film scan image. No image adjustments were applied. The Provia F ISO 100 image was scanned with my Nikon Super Coolscan 4000 ED at 4000 dpi. with ICE at normal and GEM at level 2. Some minor color adjustments were made to reduce the blue cast of the original scan. The white cutout represents the full resolution screen capture from both 5500X3600 pixel images. A reminder that shot as camera RAW, the DSLR image has had no sharpening in any stage of image creation. |
