greetings,
I9m just recently scanning a 35mm positive slides at 400% input factor.
Using linotype-hell TOPAZ flatbed scanner. Setting up 200 lpi. at my
standard setting. Leaving my filter as uncorrected. Unfortunately image
have grains visible at 100% viewing. I try to descreen at a lowest value,
it9s working but it would defeated my desired resolution. My questions
Are:
1) It would be normal to scan >400% using that original having my crude
result?
2) What must be the preferred input factor for any transparencies to have my
desired resolution.
I am very sure anybody of you guy's can help me with this...
thanks!
and more power!

The first thing that I would do is NOT to descreen the image this will make
it to soft. What you can do is first oil mount the 35mm in mineral oil with
a piece of C-42 scanning Mylar which is made by Agfa now the second thing
that you can do is make the scan spot size larger which is making the number
higher. The third thing is to make the USM smaller which means to reduce the
number and this will also make less grain or you can do a combination of
both controls. This should help you out.
