New release for podnc

2010-12-02 by Globe Trotteur

Yes i am still coding my little alternative process/B&W converter program.
$15 during the month of December. Version 2.2.2 has been released.
What it is and what it does.
It is a windows program that will work under Mac if you have parallel or something similar.
It will create curves automatically using a scanner. No more manual entry. You can still use a densitometer.
It has its own built-in B&W converter. I have a tutorial video on my web site to explain on how to create a good black and white image from a color photo.
I mainly use Silver and film. 
My process is to shoot film with kodak ektar 100.
I have it processed by Mpix because they return to me  a very clean neg. (not like WM !!)
I scan the whole neg with my Sony scanner and I get beautiful images.
I import the images into POdnc's catalog. I load the converter and create stunning B&W images.
With the podnc process, I generate an inkjet print from my 2200 using Kirkland paper.
I contact print this paper with either Ilford FB or RC paper under my enlarger. I process the images in my bathtub...
And I get a stunning image !!! that will last a very long time.
 
The program will give you feedback will give you advice.
You should get a perfect print right away.
 
The cons....
I am not a documentation writer. The best way to find out a lot of things about the program is to use the forum.
 
I hope this post is not too much off topic..
