About the Pictures(from South America) ScanningUnfortunately I scanned these all when the scanner had a dirty mirror, causing ugly flare. This flare is apparently a common problem, at least with the LS-2000. Re-scanning the whole lot isn't a very attractive idea, but I did re-do a few of the best ones (with the worst flare.)
In the mean time, I've also got a little better at correcting colour casts, so the very last picture has lost its flourscent green tinge:
You might also want to visit this page if they all look too dark (or light.) Gear and suchFWIW, most of these are with a Nikon F3 and Tokina 28-70/2.8, the rest with a tiny Nikon Zoom 300. For some reason I also took the 80-200/2.8 along, but din't use it once. All shot on Agfa RSX 100, which I could get for R12 = US$2 at the time. |
