RE: [Digital BW] Scanning 35mm Ilford Delta 100 film

2007-09-16 by Paul Grant

The Epson likes 360 dpi so with a 15in on the long side I would shoot for
5000 if you can find it.  My Minolta Dimage is spec ed at that but not sure
I really get it.

Subject: [Digital BW] Scanning 35mm Ilford Delta 100 film

 

Hello everyone,

I found and old Pentax Super Program film camera that still works like new
(how about that 
for quality construction)!! I had it cleaned then shot a roll of Delta 100.
The largest paper I 
print on is 11"x17" with the image no more than 15" on the long side (Epson
2400), but most 
prints are on 8.5"x11" paper.

The local photo store develops and scans negatives to a disc. At what
resolution should I 
have the negatives scanned to ensure a good inkjet print?

Thanks, Steve
