[filmscanners] Re: another Sharpening question



Thanks to everyone who replied to my questions.  :-)

My conclusion is that sharpening is not really needed for sky/clouds, but that a
small amount may be beneficial to offset scan-induced softening and/or to help
minimize the effects of downsizing to jpegs.  My workflow takes 55mb TIFFs down
to ~1mb TIFFs in a 5-step downsizing. These files are then used as "webmasters"
to create several sizes of jpegs.  I do not print from the large TIFFs (yet) but
use them for stock, while all jpegs are for web or previewing.

With the above in mind, at what stage would a small sharpening or contrast
enhancement make the most sense *IF* I only want to do it once, at one point in
the process?  Should I leave the TIFFs alone but do something to make enhanced
jpegs... or should this enhancement occur earlier on the TIFFs?

Is there any consensus on which software for sharpening (excluding PS) offers
the best results in the most simple, automated way?

Thanks!
Ed Verkaik
