SD1 Merrill "S-Hi"
1

A lot of interest in S-Hi mode lately. S-Hi being a Quattro mode which doubles the MP which, in some people's view, doubles the "resolution".

I thought I would try an emulation. For a Merrill, doubling the MP results in a 6652x4435px image.

Here is a street shot, full size:

And here is a "S-Hi" image:

Workflow:

Export from SPP 5.5.3 as ProPhoto 16-bit TIFF.

In RawTherapee, up-size using Lanczos algorithm. Apply Contrast By Detail Level, then Deconvolution sharpening, then Impulse noise reduction.

Seriously gritty ... !
