Aaron, You must write this technique into an article for publication submit it. It's one of the most novel fascinating technology transition adaptions I've heard yet. From this point on, your name is AA+ ron. :) Live long and prosper in results. Collin From: Aaron Reynolds [EMAIL PROTECTED] Then I remembered talking to one of our reps who one time sandwiched blank, processed film in the carrier with the neg he was printing because his client wanted more grain. Sounded like another technique from reality I could port over to Photoshop! So, I scanned the leader of a roll of pushed Delta 3200 and overlaid it, then fooled with the opacity and options in the layer palette until I was happy. Screen was the winner. The bonus, too, was that despite different crops and magnifications of the images, they all had the same sized grain, so they didn't look differently cropped.

Moire patterns will only be recognizable if all of the layers have _regular_ repetitious patterns that are different. For example, mix a 200 dpi scan with a 300 dpi scan, and you'll get an easily recognizable moire pattern. Film, however, has a stochastic (random, sort of) pattern that is not at all regular (except statistically) so it shouldn't exhibit moire patterns large enough for the human eye to detect except under extreme magnification. There will be edge effects at the points that pixel edges intersect grain edges, but these edge effects are (1) extremely small in area and (2) different from each other, so they don't appear to the eye as an extended pattern. Or so I've been told. :-) TTYL, DougF - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
