Dear colleagues
We have a number of glass plate negatives in our collection. To date, we have been scanning them by placing them direct on the platten at 1200 dpi. A recent depositor has asked for prints from his collection and and thinks the image produced is 'flat'. Apart from not quite getting what he means by 'flat', what other options are there for 1) scanning in house with our usual equipment - can we make them better? and 2) what should we be aiming for if we were to look at new equipment?
Thank you very much.
