Camera Talk

Frustrating about the mishap with the tank, but that'll smooth out now that you're back in the game. Congrats on the retirement!

Color balancing C41 scans

Fascinating. Thanks for sharing that. The first technique is exactly what I was suggesting -- I just do it at the scanning stage, then do any tweaking in Affinity afterward. But obviously you can do it all in Affinity, and the additional techniques he shows are intriguing. I struggle to get my brain...
