Re: [Digital BW] Developing RAW scans: for Martin

Todd,

Tree. That would be the discussion we had about adjusting an 8-bit 
image to the point of histogram meltdown vs. doing the same 
adjustments in 16-bit where a smooth histogram is maintained but when 
they are printed you can't tell the difference between the prints. In 
other words maintain a smooth 8-bit histogram is not a requirement 
for a good print and working in 16-bit space may not offer an 
advantage to adjusting your average neg.
