pyrochild Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 My Curves+ plugin has a Negative preset. Give it a try. Quote ambigram signature by Kemaru [i write plugins and stuff] If you like a post, upvote it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ego Eram Reputo Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 If you just want to find out what's in the negative, why scan it in at all? You just need a loupe: http://www.peakoptics.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=103&zenid=2725880f27f86250f0daa373c6c84276 Quote  ebook: Mastering Paint.NET | resources: Plugin Index | Stereogram Tut | proud supporter of Codelab plugins: EER's Plugin Pack | Planetoid | StickMan | WhichSymbol+ | Dr Scott's Markup Renderer | CSV Filetype | dwarf horde plugins: Plugin Browser | ShapeMaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyrochild Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 What about Adjustments -> Invert Colors ? A film negative is definitely not the same as an RGB negative. Honestly though, can't you (sandsunsurf) tell what the picture is just by holding it up to a light? Quote ambigram signature by Kemaru [i write plugins and stuff] If you like a post, upvote it!

MadJik Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 To scan this I set the light to max and the DPI to 400 as a color photo. Then I've use: 1. autolevel adjustment. 2. invert colors. 3. autolevel adjustment again. http://i154.photobucket.com/albums/s258/MadJikF59/Untitled.jpg There is a lot of noise but the colors are mostly correct and we could recognize the dog (in the right)... With more tests on the parameters I think we could have a better result... But it is really slow!
