Good luck with the copying, Hamada-san! I'm sorry, but I don't have any experience with noise removal software. Perhaps others can help you there? André

This is what I was going to suggest. André

Beautiful area, well done with the compositions ;) André

Thanks KCK14 👍 I shot the slides with a Nikon FE-2 and usually the f2.8 28mm AI. The copies were shot in raw, converted to dng with pp in Camera Raw 13.0. Took me a while to get the exact focus ...

Ken, I bow to your superior knowledge ;) André

When you reach the retirement age, nostalgia kicks in ;) I recently bought a Reflecta slide duplicator. I use it with my Micro-Nikkor f3.5 55mm (from 1975) and the PK-11 extension ring on the ...

Hi, It is indeed great to retrieve old memories in this way. Just recently I bought a Reflecta slide duplicator. I use it with the Micro-Nikkor 3.5 55mm AI (from 1975) and also the smallest PK-11 ...

Thank you, MrSee! 👍 André

Great series! That first one is indeed special 👍 Viewed at 100% I can even see that tiny person in the distance shielding their face against the sandstorm ;) André

Hi, Please check the firmware version of the lens. It should be 3.24 They have been working on improving sharpness, I believe. My fairly recent 18-55mm is sharp corner to corner. André https://fuji ...

Fujifilm X cameras actually have jpg 'film simulation' presets like Velvia, Provia and Astia. Perhaps you should look at cameras like the X-T4 after all ;) here's a good recent thread full of Fuji ...

I agree. I used Nikon 35mm film cameras like the Nikkormat, F2, Fe-2, F3. And digital Nikons from D100 to D700. These days I'm quite happy with my Fujifilm X-T1 and X-T4, for the reasons you mention. ...

Hi, I know that the Zuiko 1.8 50mm is a very good lens. Also try asking in the Adapted Lens forum here. found this: https://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/4659376#forum-post-66318836 André

The natural ice is long gone now, but the kids can skate around the 15th century Town Hall during the holidays ;) (Your comments are always welcome and appreciated) André Skating around the Town ...

Hello, As long as you have a good set of Nikon lenses, my advice would be: have a look at the Nikon D780. I have never owned Canon gear, so cannot help you there. There are still good film scanners ...
