Hi,
after comparing 8 and 16 bit scans of 6x6 transparencies with the Epson 4990
and Epson scan 2.61G by thorough examination of the scans with photoshop
with respect to posterization in highlights and shadows, I can't see any
differences between the two bit depths. I scanned with Epson color
calibration as well as with ICM profiles.
Has anyone similar experiences?
Epson scan behaves a little bit strange with respect to 24/48 bit and color
profile handling. For example, when using ICM profiles, switching from 24 to
48 bit requires a relaunch of the exposure button and the resulting color
characteristics of the image is much different from the 24 bit version
(preview as well as the scan). Also, the tiff scan is not tagged with the
color profile, it must be assigned in photoshop after the scan.
