Nastassja Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 I need to scan a photo for a memorial service. The photo is pretty decent quality. It's 11x7" in the photobook. I've done a quick scan on the office scanner and it came out not too bad, although there is now noise that's not in the original. Should I stay on 300dpi? I would also need to fix the glare on his glasses. I'm attaching a photo of the photo.

Nastassja Posted February 1, 2023 Author Posted February 1, 2023 Yes I did. Do I proceed with the Raw process as usual?
Damien Symonds Posted February 1, 2023 Posted February 1, 2023 I'm confused. Did you find a better scanner to scan it? Or did you take a raw photo of it?
Damien Symonds Posted February 1, 2023 Posted February 1, 2023 Did you try this, though? https://www.damiensymonds.net/2010/10/tips-for-photographing-old-photos-for.html
Nastassja Posted February 1, 2023 Author Posted February 1, 2023 I might have to try that in the morning. I don't have the photobook with me at home
Damien Symonds Posted February 1, 2023 Posted February 1, 2023 Are you applying that sharpening, or is it in the print?
