[rollei_list] Re: Scanners

I think you did not get my point, I was not questioning Mark's point,
I only wished to show the difference between a raw file and a file
with some minimal software work .  According the way I see the raw
file, I think you couldn't use it directly because it looks flat and
unsharp, it needs some software work. My file original neg is very
contrasty and the scanned version reflects this fact, the image liked
that way as I see from the number of visitors and comments, it printed
very well and was published in the Rollei Users Magazine last year.-
