As Daffy Duck said, oh so long ago, "Ah, hah! Semantics!"
If you scan a negative, you automatically lose a bit of sharpness. In results
from 3 drugstores, my small .jpgs (at 150dpi which is
LOW), all of them showed artifacts of over-sharpening.
"Sharpening" is an enhancement and I guess all 3 drugstores dialed in LOTS of
it. The edges of objects look artificial. I'm not
speaking for anyone but myself, but to please me, they could have "turned down
the sharpening process" a bit. I might have asked
them to "reduce the sharpness" but that wouldn't mean I'd get a blurry picture.
I would be hoping to have fewer artificially-added
oversharpening artifacts.
See?
