Hello,
many of you ha indeed noticed my never ending posts with different color/calibration problems I experienced with my Microtek F1 (some of which can be traced back to the owner)
Anyhow - I have recently noticed that my scans look soft beyond normal, so I decided to contact Microtek support in Germany and for that I did some test scans of the calibration slide (as I do not have resolution target and the slide has writing on in which is plenty sharp for this purpose)
Anyhow - here are the results.I am only showing the 100% crops with no post processing than cropping. Please ignore the color shift - not relevant here.
Please not that the full 100% crops are 800x800 and to get them just click on the images
1) 2400 spi scan (this one with manual selection of the focus point, but changing the AF setting had NO effect - which was a first sign of the problem)
2) 1200 spi scan scan scaled up to 2400 spi in CS3
3) 600 spi scan scaled up to 2400 spi in CS3
4) 300 spi scan scaled up to 2400 spi
continued ...
