[filmscanners] Re: 8 bit versus 16




Money quote ...
Yes, here we go again.

You CAN bombard me with facts about 8 bit being fine.
And people can 'talk up'/ 'talk down' their particular
favourite, preferred or religious route.

I will ALWAYS scan at 16 bit, and will always archive
at 16 bit. Just because the tools today cant make my
gold 100% pure, doesnt mean the tools tomorrow wont.

Of course, I take everything I believe with a lump
of reality, as, by the time I decide to review images
that were scanned a long time ago, and realise that
I couldve done better on the scan .. well:

1. The negs will have degraded ... colour lost.
2. The scanner I used will be a dusty relic with
    a wierd connector and wierder manual interface.
3. My new scanner will laugh at the low quality
    scanning I did ...

Of course, "The 8 Bitters" are right, 8 bit is fine.
But I dont think so. See above.
