Re: filmscanners: About 12 or 16 bits



Thanks, Michael, you assured me than my thoughts, while not correct in a
math sens, are on their own right way to let me understand how things work
and how to get the best profit for my results.

My initial question arised because:

1. After seeing so many times "RGB 48 bits", I had completly forgotten that
my scanner has a 32 bits limit.

2. Only a few days ago I felt the need to tune also in the scanning software
and not only in Photoshop. I was not understanding quite well the
differences between tuning the dynamic range or the white and black points.
Now I am getting much closer.

|   Essentially.  I couldn't confirm the exact equivelences (my math for
| 2000(12bit) is more like 25198(16bit) ... and of course there is no '4096'
| or '65536', rather 4095 becomes 65535.
