Question about colour depth for scanner
Another newbie question.
My slide scanner (PF3650Pro3) can scan at 8 or 16 bit colour depth. However, if I manipulate an image scanned at 16 bit depth, on saving it is changed to 8 bit by the software. I have tried Photoshop element, Paintshop Pro & Gimp - all change the colour depth to 8 bit. Is there any benefit of scanning at 16 bit colour depth as almost all scanned images need some sort of manipulation. Scanning at 16 bit takes significantly longer than at 8 bit. -- Gautam Majumdar Please send e-mails to
