Subject: [Digital BW] AN glass update.


Hi all, I've been playing with some AN glass from Focal Point Ind. I got a
2mm sheet of 4x5 custom cut part no. STK-MS45AN2 (38USD) for my 1680pro.
I've been using it with Vuescan with the manual focus point set at 0 and
with the textured side of the glass on facing the neg (th eneg is emulsion
down as always).
This stuff works. Centrally this is a marginal improvement but a  big
improvement on the edges. No Newton rings as yet.

Now the question is, which focus setting will give you the best results
using this method?

I would try: 0.125, 0.25, 0.375, and 0.5

Care to run a quick test and let us know?

I understand that.. BUT, it turns out that the defaults for the VueScan
settings on the 2450 were NOT originally 0..  In fact, they were
different for transparency and flatbed scans..  And some testing has
shown that varying settings in VueScan have produced different results..
one test showed that the actual "0" focal point was at 3/32 of an inch
above the flatbed glass..
