Hi Wendy, thanks for your reply. There's an explanation of gamma here: http://www.bberger.net/gamma.html
In short, it's one of the methods used to try and get images produced on one system to look the same on a different system. Looking at the scans on my PC without changing the gamma makes them seem very dark. 1.8 is the rule-of-thumb setting for PC monitors. What do you mean by 'milky'. NB. This is not an attempt to produce a scan optimised for web use. It's just a rough example of the output from the Konica system, and a chance to show off a couple of photos. In going straight from a 40Mb file to about 60Kb there's a huge loss of quality, particularly without putting in any work to improve it. --- Bob mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Wednesday, June 26, 2002, 12:21:57 AM, you wrote: > Hi Bob, > It looks very milky to me. > Of course, I'm not discounting that it could be that someone's been > fiddling with my monitor. > btw.
