I need to rent a film scanner but no one rents them in
Cincinnati.
I'm really, really disappointed with the Picture CD
results from Target. I gave them 3 rolls of concert
photos to do and it was a waste of money. They were
all blurry and even the skin tones of the flash shots
were ruddy.
They didn't even rotate the verticals and the balance
was really awful.
I admit that the available light shots need a big
correction as I used daylight C-41 under tungsten.
I've been getting much better results with my simple
film scanner attachment (at 1200 dpi) for the flat bed
scanner but I've spent hours just scanning the first 9
frames of the 7 roll project!
Does anyone have any ideas, besides buying a dedicated
and *automated* film scanner? I need to be able to
set up a correction, feed it a strip of 4 (now that
everything's been cut!) and walk away.
I may have to buy a scanner at MicroCenter. Other
ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Jim
I would not think that Target is your only option to have a photo CD
done. If you have lots of time on your hands, though, get a scanner.
