I’d be grateful for advice on scaning B&W negs (Kodak Tmax 100 and 3200 film with the Nikon Coolscan 4000ED). Specifically, I’d like to know if I should scan in greyscale or RGB and if there is a visible difference in 8 and 14 bit mode. Images will be for a variety of print and electornic projects, but need to be very high quality (for books and calendars). I’ve scanned some in greyscale and some RGB and can see a slight but obvious differnece.
If I convert an RGB scan to greyscale in p’shop, will this leave me with the "same" file as scanning in greyscale??
8 bit or 14 bit (for B&W and color slides)? I can’t notice any difference in the prints (with Epson 2200 using Epson premium semi-gloss and luster paper).
Any other general advice on scanning color slides and B&W film would be appreciated.
