There is some loss at each optical stage, and scanners are optical... and not always truly superior optics, either, let alone ability to handle not quite flat...

My HP prints have hung well in a gallery setting along with other people's traditional silver prints... of course they are my images and my intent... but I...
LOL ... Mark, I didn't mean to imply that the prints weren't of high quality. It's simply that the look of a glossy photographic print isn't generally what I'm...

It's really not all that difficult to process a silver-gelatin print archivally. Using the Ilford fast-fix technique, I can get a print that shows no...
thanks donald. so why do neg scanners generate newton rings then? the emulsion side is down, and i not even touching the glass when put in a carrier. i did ...
newton rings are a phenomenon of the light bouncing back and forth between the two layers, the film and the glass -- if you have a piece of flat glass and then...
But the whole point of having glass carriers is to keep warped film flat. If your film isn't flat, won't a paper mask between the film and the glass just let...
... it might, but the tendency of film is to flatten, not to curve more -- if it is so curved that it causes rings no matter what you do, put it in a negative ...
... My scanner generates Newton rings when I scan negatives on the glass, because the curve of the negative causes the base side (I scan emulsion down) to...
Most optical surfaces in those uses have anti-newton glass -- it has a very slight texture rather than being totally flat and polished. This keeps the film...
... While this is surely true of the original glass in negative carriers for most if not all enlargers (though it seems to me the glass carrier in the ancient...
