Nice to see you back, Tom. Took out my TX-1 couple of weeks ago with a (Hasselblad-branded) 90mm. Fuji Superia400 film, developed at a local half-hour lab for a mere 2.70 euros and scanned with a Pakon F135.
High-rise buildings in a financial business oriented district that also includes some expensive apartmens on the south side of Amsterdam.

Love the building shots Paul! Those first two look like enormous Lego constructions. Must be impressive to see in real life. Very nice.

Paul, how hard was it to configure TLX or PSI for scanning the pano's? Second question, scanned any chromes/positives with the pakon? I know it can be done, just curious about hands on results.

Jon, no problem at all scanning Xpan/TX-1 files under TLX with the settings specified in the Pakon-group's file section (TLX: Scan half-frame, panoramic, 3D film).
Haven't tried scanning positives yet. My existing slides are all framed and I scan them either with Nikon Coolscan 9000 or with macro lens and slide copier setup on Nikon D750. Had a roll of positives developed last week, but the film was expired for too long, apparently, because it had no usable images on it.

xpan's/tx-1 have always intrigued me, so I was curious.
Have a box of provia and thinking about home developing and using the pakon...I dread sending them out. Friggin' expensive for dev/scan!

I was very disappointed with Noritsu LS-600 slide scans. It don’t expect the Pakon to be better. Unfortunately the only film scanner currently in production that can handle slides well is the Hasselblad. The Nikon Coolscans are fantastic.

You are right, both scanners were designed with c-41 in mind (which they are fantastic at!). The pakon has a hidden "button" for positives but direct output is far from ideal. I have seen some excellent examples in a workaround where they were scanned and exported in raw, then converted in PS but wanted some more hands on experience...if anyone on here had taken a stab at it and their personal results.

I agree Edward. I just got back some E6 scans which were done on the Imacon and they are superb.

Flare. What flare? This kind of flare is a pretty easy fix with a feathered selection and a curves move.

Wow - looks great! I am not super experienced with Photoshop. How did you do this? I have a lot of flare issues with older glass and this may come in handy!
