Best DPI to Scan 6x6 B&W Negatives
PostPosted: Mon Jul 12, 2010 6:54 pm
I'm scanning with an Epson Perfection 4490 flat bed and hoping to get quality output for at least a 15X10 inch print.
I have done some practice scans and it appears that a dpi of 1200 or 2400 gives the best results. Can someone
please advise me on the best dpi and would multiple scans be better than one scan only? Yes, I realize my scanner is
not the best for this purpose but it is all I can afford.
Thanks.
