[filmscanners] RE: scanner dmax discussion
Sorry!
Haven't been following this thread too closely, but if someone is using
George DeWolfe as a source, then God help them! That man is pretentious,
silly and technically inept. Every article of his contains some glaring
inaccuracy or ridiculous non-sequitur. In the last one I read (Camera
Arts?), he has a long list of Photoshop "recipes", none of which has a
title or description! "Recipe" for WHAT?
