The LS-30 is nearly identical to the LS-2000, except for firmware which limits a few things, like 10-bits per color channel color output instead of 12. (But there are work arounds). - -----Original Message----- From: Mxsmanic [mailto:mxsmanic@hotmail.com] Sent: Friday, July 06, 2001 12:49 AM To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us Subject: Re: [Leica] Re: scanning B&W: salt and pepper appearance Mark E Davison writes: > The point is that the LS-2000 just isn't resolving > the grain patterns. Digital images of 3826x2551 pixels in size or less cannot resolve grain any better than the LS-2000. This is true even of the world's best print scans. And an ink-jet printer, even when printing a 16x19-inch print, cannot resolve any better than about 3600x2400 pixels, which is even worse than the LS-2000. So whatever differences you see between print scans and film scans using ink-jet output at anything less than poster size, it is unlikely to be a consequence of any lack of resolution on the part of the LS-2000.<<
