  • Page 54 The RGB colour model is an additive process that uses the primary colours of light: red, green, and blue. An additive colour system mixes the three colours to recreate the entire spectrum of light. If all three colours are mixed, white light is produced. Television sets and computer monitors use RGB to create images.
  • Page 55 • Each time the tone curve is clicked, a new node will be attached to the curve. The nodes can be moved by clicking and dragging. • The input and output levels of the node are dis- played as it is moved. The input level (horizontal axis) refers to the original scan, and the output level (vertical axis) refers to the correction applied to the image.
  • Page 56 Image processing is a highly specialised and difficult field that takes years of practice to master. This basic guide to using tone curves covers a few simple procedures to improve your pictures. For more about digital-image processing, consult your local book dealer about self-help guides on this subject.
  • Page 57 The contrast of an image can be changed. The light blue 45° line on the tone curve chart represents the original contrast of the scanned image. Making the angle of the tone curve greater than 45° will increase the contrast of the image. Making the angle less than 45° will reduce the contrast. With the RGB channel selected, click on the tone curve near the top and bottom to add two nodes.
  • Page 58 Advanced image corrections can be made by specifying a white, black, and gray point within the image. Locating an appropriate neutral area within the image is critical to correctly calibrate the soft- ware. When the dropper tool is selected, the RGB display is active and can be used to evaluate the image area.
  • Page 59 • The area used to calibrate the gray point must be neutral. The brightness level of the area is not important, but if the area has a definite colour, the image will not be colour bal- anced correctly. • Click the reset button to cancel all corrections. The white and black-point values are set to 255 and 0 for each RGB level.
  • Page 60 The histogram indicates the distribution of pixels with specific brightness and colour values inside the cropping frame. Using the histogram can maximise the output of the image data. Changes made with the histogram are also displayed on the tone curve. •...
  • Page 61 • The tone curve and histogram dialog box extends to the right to show the R, G, B channel his- tograms. • Click the histogram RGB display button again to close the RGB histograms. • The changes are reflected in the prescan image.
  • Page 62 This palette allows easy corrections to be made to brightness, contrast, and colour. • Dragging each slider to the right or inputting a positive number in the text box increases the brightness, con- trast, and colour. • To correct for an unnatural colour cast is simple. If the image is too: Red –...
  • Page 63 This palette adjusts the image in reference to the HSB colour model. These controls can be used to manipulate the colour image rather than producing a realistic representation. The HSB colour model defines colour based upon human perception rather than photographic processes.
  • Page 64 The variation dialog box allows an image to be corrected by comparing it to other slightly corrected images surrounding it. This is an easy method to correct images for individuals who are inexperi- enced in image processing or photofinishing. • The variation dialog box appears. •...
  • Page 65 Eight images with a slight correction to brightness and contrast are displayed around a thumbnail of the uncorrected prescan image. • The initial setting is 10. The step can be set between 1 and 20. • Checking the display-limit check box will indi- cate when any of the image values exceed 0 (black limit) or 255 (white limit) with the com- plementary colour.
  • Page 66 Selective-colour correction is an advanced technique to refine the colours in the image. The colour of each process colour, cyan, magenta, yellow, and black, can be used to adjust the six separate colour groups in the image: red, green, blue, cyan, magenta, and yellow. This type of correction is effective in changing a specific colour without influencing any of the other colours in the image.
  • Page 67 • limit the sharp subject pixels in the shadows. When the luminance level is greater than the shadow protection level, that pixel is recognised as a sharp pixel. When the undo button is clicked, the last image correction is can- celled.
  • Page 68 All corrections applied to an image can be saved as a correction Job. The correction Job can be loaded into the utility at any time, and the correction settings can be applied to different images. • The registration dialog box appears. •...

To make use of these image-processing functions, the following system requirements must be met: Minimum system requirements Memory Pentium 166MHz or later 128MB Minimum system requirements Memory Pentium 166MHz or later 128MB Minimum system requirements...
  • Page 70 Digital ICE (Image Correction Enhancement) eliminates surface defects (dust, scratches, finger- prints, mould, etc.) from the film image during scanning. • Digital ICE processing is applied to the prescan and final scan. • Digital ICE cannot be used with Kodak Kodachrome film. •...
  • Page 71 The Digital ROC (Reconstruction of Colour) can restore the faded colour of old film. • When Digital ROC is used, the prescan also makes the final scan. When the final scan is made, the image data is simply processed and saved. While the final scan is relatively fast, the prescans require more time.
  • Page 72 Digital GEM (Grain Equalisation and Management) reduces the effect of grain in colour film. Grain is a sandy texture that can sometimes be seen smooth uniform areas of the image, such as the sky. Grain is more pronounced in fast film. Digital GEM cannot be used with traditional black and white films.
  • Page 73 • Choose a smooth uniform area to evaluate. Skin is a good subject. • Using the mouse, place the pointer over the corners or sides of the GEM sample area frame; the pointer will change to a double arrow. Simply click and drag the edge of the frame to adjust the area.
  • Page 74 Before making the final scan, the input and output parameters must be specified. While it is possible to input the scan settings yourself, DiMAGE Scan Elite II gives you an easier choice – the Job func- tion, which automatically loads the scan settings based on the final use of the image.
  • Page 75 The Standard Scan Utility contains approximately 110 preinstalled Job files to cover a wide range of image use. • The Job-selection dialog box will appear. • The scan settings of the selected Job file are displayed on the right side of the selection window. •...
