Original film - Has the most detail but may not be able to replace, so it would be wise to scan the film and make a digital negative.
Digital film – Creating digital film is very convenient. It’s great for making adjustments of the image, such as contrast and the size of the image (not so easy to do with original film).
Film output - Great for A.P.P. with sufficient amount of detail and ability to reprint at minimal cost.
Inkjet/Laser print – Convenient to print at home but the quality of the printer makes a big difference in image quality. High quality inkjet printer can produce adequate image for A.P.P.
When using film from inkjet or laser printer, print two of the same image and make a sandwich to produce an image with cleaner white areas and better contrast.
原始底片–擁有最多細節但只有一張,所以比較建議先掃描底片然後製作數位的負片
數位負片–製作數位負片十分簡單,能夠自行調整影像的比例、大小等等(相較於傳統底片)
底片輸出(Film Output)–日光顯影最佳良伴!有足夠的細節和低成本可以重複輸出。
噴墨/雷射列印–擁有可在家自行製作的便利性,但印表機的品質對於影像品質扮演很大的關鍵。高階的印表機可以製造出可接受的日光顯影影像。
當使用印表機輸出的負片,請印出兩張相同的影像然後疊在一起以製造出更為乾淨的白色部份,以及較好的反差。
