Comment by Stanovich posted on Moving house and found an old camera. Can anyone advise on whether I can find a collector/home for it? at 10/08/2014 - 22:55
I think slide film works better than negatives for scanning, it seems less susceptible to dust and scratches (or at least easier to repair), and the colours and light levels give more scope post-processing.
Here are two examples:
MZ50 with 28-80 zoom using ISO64 Kodachrome (slide). Original scan 1200dpi. https://www.pentaxuser.com/photo/funchal-from-monte-palace-gardens-78433/large
ME Super with 50mm f2 prime using ISO200 Agfa (negative). Original scan 2400dpi. https://www.pentaxuser.com/photo/dillington-house-24639/large

Comment by Stanovich posted on DA 18-135 WR. Weatherproof, but will it keep dust out as well? at 28/01/2014 - 17:03
I would be interested in giving the 18-135 a try, but have been put off by comments about image quality compared with the above two. Maybe if I can find a second hand version for £200-ish...
