[filmscanners] Re: FW: VueScan file size



O.K., I can understand how VueScan can automatically compensate for IR channels 
and 16-bit,
but how does it predetermine the results of LZW (or jpg) compression? Since 
this can vary
wildly depending on the image contents, I'd assume you'd have to do the actual 
compression
to know the results.

Speaking of odd compression results, I got a weird one with experimenting with 
JPEG 2000
yesterday--on a 620MB raw file, JPEG 2000/lossless was 320MB, JPEG 2000/quality 
100 was
380MB! And is there any faster way to do JPEG 2000 than the Photoshop plug-in? 
It takes
upwards of 4 hours on my G4/400 to save a 620MB raw size file. The same file 
takes under 3
minutes as a tiff.
