This morning working with a Nikon Super Coolscan5000, I scanned this vintage Kodachrome 25 color slide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a scaled version of the original scan without post processing color or contrast adjustment. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I used Hamrick\u2019s VueScan software which allows me considerable control over the scanning process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This has the ability to make a multiple pass scan that can obtain greater detail from highlight and shadow areas by scanning the same image several times and combining the scans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has a color setting specifically tailored to Kodachrome film and allows white balance fine-tuning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

VueScan work window for controlling color and exposure during scanning. Notice that I’ve used the Kodachrome profile.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

VueScan Input control window where I have selected ‘Fine mode’, 3 samples, and multiple exposure features. I outputted the scan as Tif file at 4050dpi, then scaled in post processing for internet presentation.

In post-processing, I used Lightroom to make fine adjustments to improve color balance and contrast before scaling for internet presentation.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I made the original photograph on April 19, 1989, showing a northward Rochester & Southern freight with former New York Central GP40s crossing a road at Scottsville, New York.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
