Hi,
I have just taken delivery of a shiny new Epson V700, with the purpose of archiving someones photo collection, ranging from B&W from the 30s up to the 80s.
I have tried using the Epson TWAIN driving inside PS CS5, but that just crashes too often. So now I am trying the Epson as stand alone and also the copy of Silverfast that came with it.
I will spending the next couple of days playing with all of the settings, I was just hoping for some general advice.
I am presuming that I want to scan in 48b mode @600dpi and save as TIFF.
I was then just going to take the TIFFS straight into LR and tinker away till I get an image I like.
I was planning on having Digital ICE turned on, but have read that as that softens the image to only use it when necessary, so I have just turned on the basic cleaning and left it on low.
thanks.
simon.
