Quote:not in Obican case, he uses medium formatThat is exactly how I calculated it.
You're lucky to get 30 to 40 lp/mm from a B&W negative in 135 film, let alone from a slide.
That's about 6 MP. Multiplied by 4 you get the resolution of a 6X6 MF negative.
it actually is a fallacy that you can get more out of a negative or positive, just because you can use a higher resolution scanner. All you do is oversampling.
Professionally processed B&W may be able to get a little more, but then, MF lenses have lower resolution than FF and APS-C etc lenses have, generally speaking, amongst others because of the way they are used, their apertures, and lens construction.
Kind regards, Wim
Quote:I'd think even 32MP from any sorf of 35mm film (negative, black and white, slide etc) is being overly optimistic.
Yes, I was being optimistic here, I am fully aware of that
