For several weeks I have a Howtek scanner and am very happy so far.
But what I noticed:
If I convert on Lightroom my processed TIF files to JPG (with a fixed quality level of 90% without resizing) they are significantly bigger in comparison to the converted Epson scans at the same image size.
For example:
* A color negative scan (1x Epson V850, 1x Howtek 4500), TIF-File, resized to nearly 6200 x 5000 px
* Conversion to JPG via Lightroom, no resizing, quality level = 90%, sRGB
* Epson scan conversion results to a 15MB JPG
* Howtek scan conversion results to a 45MB JPG
Any ideas?
Miccy.
