Format | Captured by Luna Imaging at 300 dpi in TIFF format using a Cambo 4x5 camera with a Betterlight 4x5 Camera Back on a System 800 copystand with Varispeed 1000 controllers, using camera settings of 90 mm 1:5.6 Rodenstock at f11. Driver/interface for the camera back was Viewfinder 5 v.5.1, with image review and conversion from blueprint reproduction to original format using Photoshop v6.0.1 on a Mac G4. Image derivatives were created with LunaPro for JPEG creation and MrSID Pro (incorporated in an automated way within LunaPro) for the wavelet file creation. Derived SID images have an average compression target of 12:1 while derived JPEGs are 768 pixels on the long side. image/jpeg |
