Sup /fgt/'s?
There has been a lot of talk about scanning film, so I decided to do some comparisons.
What follows is two FULL SIZED scans of a single negative. Nothing special, just a snapshit at the station to test out a new film camera I had cleaned. One is a full sized fullframe camera scan, and the second is a scanned using the Plustek OpticFilm 8200i at full size (which outputs a MASSIVE 200 mb .tiff file).
First up is the mirrorless. It is scanned with an a7ii w/ SEL90M28 that was manually focused. The negatives were held with the Lomography 135 film holder.
Dust and scratches were removed manually (there were quite a few actually, this was the first roll through a dirty old camera that wasn't cleaned quite as well as I had thought), and color correction was done using this:

I am sure some of you anons could do better, but my monitors aren't calibrated, and my eye for color is kinda shit (maybe I should shoot b&w?).
