Re: [APML] OT and kinda onT: E100VS, Velvia 50, and Scanner now

Hi Ray,
 
I use a Nikon LS 10E coolscan which is old....still uses the scuzz.
I believe this scanner was intended for use with the mac systems.
 
The software I use is just some cheap free thing from nikon which only helps to preview what I am scanning.
It also takes 15 mins to scan at 2700dpi
Another option that would e great is to get in closer on the preview to see if all is sharp, but it doesnt alllow so I do my best.
I wish there was some way to adjust the bulb settings as if you could tell on my waterfall picture, it could have helped along with some of my other H-a tech pan shots too....its just much too dark of a scan.
What do I do to eliminate the lines I see in my scans...I always have to use the clone tool in photoshop to remove them.
 
Brian

Hey all,
 
First the off topic, My website is updated with all the pictures working but not all the links leading back to the homepage so just hit back to navigate.
I also added a few new fall colours pictures to my website which can be found in the nature photography section that I took yeterday and today on the Kodak E100VS film.
Its a great film for shooting in ovecast days for fall colours I found out.
The saturation is incredible with this film.
Im going to try the Velvia 50 next weekend when I get some time to head out to the state forest again.
The Velvia I heard is where its at for fall colour film.
What I dont know is, (which is the on topic question), is how these films work for astrophotography.
I imagine the E100VS works pretty good for astrophotos considering its relative the "E200" is primo choice.
 
But what about the velvia 50?
Star trails?
 
Thanks,
Brian
