Thanks, Ed! Good question! I export them as uncompressed tifs out of Silverfast. That way I have as much data as possible when processing in Lightroom.
@@MatthewArringtonphoto thanks Matthew, I’ve been using silverfast but only to scan as DNG files for NLP. I’m definitely going to try out your approach as your images look really good 👍🏻
Hello Matthew good night. I am a digital shooter, but really liked your film editing, and the film vibe too. In the portraits, specially in the restaurant picture you made your wife justice. I think portraits are the tough ones. Greetings from Chile 🇨🇱, I will suscribe.
I like the idea of analog. I just don’t get why you want to do analog just to converted to digital… you might as well shot with your phone. It is like making mp3 files from vynil records.
I understand your point. For me, however, I love the way film captures color (for color film) and grain/contrast in black and white. The shooting experience is also different and there is an element of surprise and experimentation with film. That said, not everyone has a darkroom and ability to make traditional photographic paper prints with an enlarger (especially color prints), so these are going to be digitized in one way or another, so it helps to figure out a technique to capture as much of the nuance and intrinsic qualities of the film in a digital capture as possible. That’s my take at least. Thanks for watching!
Great video Matthew. Can I ask did you export the negatives out of silverfast as raw files to process in LR?

I just realized that the title got cut off when I changed my export settings. My apologies!
