scanner can't get the grain sharply rendered then it can't make a
sharp scan.
You can get sharp scans and NOT scan down to the film grain. In fact,
most scanners do not resolve

Hi Harvey,
HI scan 35mm at 5080 and do not sharpen at all. I also shoot
with Leica and
Contax (Zeiss) glass, as well as develop my own film, so I can
control the
quality of the development.
Aren't 'sharp' images on film a different issue than sharp scans?
Yes, but your scans won't
Austin writes ...
And aren't higher bit level scans sharper than lower bit
ones?
No. In fact, they would be softer, since there are more
tonal levels. Sharpness is really nothing but contrast,
as in difference in tonal values.
I don't agree!! What you are implying is ... because

Harvey,
So, I still maintain, that in *this* discussion, the sharpness of
the original has no bearing on the need to
sharpen scans for printing.
For YOUR purposes, if you want to shoot a Holga and scan grain, that's
fine...but most people 1) don't do that and 2) don't do that...so how is
Austin,
After reading your reply, I see no point in continuing this discussion.

You must be referring to color. I only talk about BW, and there is no
inherent flaw in scanning BW, if you do not scan BW in RGB. The
Hi Chris,
I'm curious to know if those who scan and print 35mm negs --using a 3600
dpi
scanner and above -- typically sharpen their scanned images before
printing.

To do so I'm using ''Bruce Fraser's sharpening
action'' and ''Ultra Sharpen III action'' in PS6.
