I haven't been able to find much on the web to help me with optimal
conversion
parameters (e.g., best output color space, 8-bit vs 16-bit TIFF, etc.).
Once you've opened the image, the workflow/settings are no different than
any other image. It all depends on your usage.
It would help if you new the film used, as there are several settings in the
open dialog box - ie E6, print type film etc. I've only opened images on a
Photo CD that were taken on slide film, so I don't know the effect of the
various choices on the image.

Subject: OT: converting Kodak PhotoCD format to, e.g., TIFF?
All,
I retrieved some old Kodak PhotoCDs with scans that I'd like to add to my
Adobe Lightroom database. Turns out Lightroom doesn't recognize .pcd
files.
Also, PhotoCD seems like it's a dead format. Soooo.... I need to convert
them to a "non-dead" format.
I was able to get my copy of Photoshop CS2 to open the files just fine at
maximum resolution, and I can use automation to do batch conversions. I
haven't been able to find much on the web to help me with optimal
conversion
parameters (e.g., best output color space, 8-bit vs 16-bit TIFF, etc.).
Anybody on the list have any experience?
Thanks,
Mark
