And here the detail (click to enlarge):
Sony A7 on the left. Reflecta on the right.
Sony A7 on APO-Rodagon clearly outperforms in resolution the dedicated film scanner.
Both picture have been sharpened in Lightroom to level 25. The scanner also had the sharpening option enabled during the scanning process. The scanner was set to max resolution (7200 dpi) and then resized to half (~5000×3300). The Sony A7 RAW file was converted into positive with the negfix8 tool and resized to match the scanner resolution. Both pictures are compared as jpg.
