Yes, the majority of the app is written in TypeScript. It uses github.com/lovell/sharp. I think there are a lot of great tools in JavaScript land for computer vision, but maybe not as many code examples or theory explainers that go beyond resizing images for web servers. Some features are missing here and there, but the pieces written in other languages to fill the gap are a few and don’t need as much maintenance.
Overall, JavaScript seems like an ideal solution for this…
I am just curious. Was the app written in JavaScript? I was a scientific programmer for over 30 years in genetics research. I have written many image analysis algorithms (Java, C++), so I just wondered what it looks like in other languages. I understand if you do not want to share actual code; however, I wonder what challenges came up language-wise in your experience. Thanks for all you do! Bill
I wrote this guide four years ago after researching ways to personally take over the process that traditional scanning and film inversion apps obfuscate.
I needed to know how exactly the software affects the colours of my film to identify and control the visual differences between film stocks and measure the effects of my lenses, filters, and exposures.
Having learned a great deal about the transformative path of a negative with an orange mask to a digital colour…
film Q is a web app that batch-inverts film scans right here on Analog.Cafe: analog.cafe/app/filmq
Version 1.0.0-beta adds support for new RAW formats: RAF, NEF, and DNG (in addition to the initial support of ARW).
Additionally, several bugs were fixed, including one that caused issues with unusual characters in file names.
Note: film Q is still in beta, which means that there may be issues and missing features. Please email concerns and feature requests to [email protected]
Lomography has updated its DigitaLIZA Scanning Kits.
The new DigitaLIZA+ and DigitaLIZA Max modular scanning setups allow phone or camera scanning for multiple roll formats: 35mm, 120, 110, and 127. Medium format scans can be as large as 6×7.
The new backlight included in both kits features CRI 97, which means it emits 97% of wavelengths compared to incandescent light bulbs. Keeping this number as high as possible is crucial for getting accurate colours out of your negatives. Plus, you can use your own…
film Q User Guide is now public, while the app is still in private beta.
film Q is a new app that inverts film negatives on the Analog.Cafe website without the need to install any software. It connects to your Dropbox account and processes your files in the cloud.
This app will have several advantages over traditional film inversion apps, such as hands-off batch processing, zero resource usage, and an open and consistent inversion algorithm.
My goal with this app is to show you exactly what the inversion…
It’s the one that got away! They look very nice but seem to be quite rare lately. I will give it a try and review once I get a chance. Thank you for stopping by!
Thank you for taking the time to send me your feedback, Rafael!
I’ll definitely consider making more courses for the tools you mentioned.
I’m assuming that your comment refers to this guide: analog.cafe/r/how-to-edit-…. While it uses Photoshop for all of the examples, I believe the skills are transferrable to any image editing application that would allow you to create layers. Hope that helps.
I appreciate this course a lot, but I believe that using Photoshop is not the reality of most photographers, as most of us are using tools like Lightroom, NLP, Fiomonat converter, etc. — a course on NLP would be formidable! Thanks!
Lomography released a development tank that makes loading film easier.
The fiddliest task of developing film is feeding it onto reels. Reels arrange it so that there’s spacing/no contact across the entire strip. This allows water and chemicals to flow freely across the entire surface, but it has to be done in darkness.
However, loading film onto reels can be difficult. Everything needs to be done by feel. Your hands are confined to a small space that can get warm quickly. As your hands get warm, the sweat makes…
Elvis (ONDU founder) replied to my request for clarification about the discontinuation of his pinhole cameras a few days ago, but I only had the chance to post his response now. In any case, it repeats what he had earlier posted publically —
“…I want to focus on large format cameras and other projects in the future.
There’s a bunch of stock to go around for some months, depending on how many people want to snatch them now.
But I feel like I’d like to give other projects a go. If I find a solution for…
Film Ferrania’s Facebook page has been in the hands of alleged scammers for almost two years. It can be rough on the Internet, even for well-known brands.
Though I haven’t had my account stolen 🤞, it appears that restoring one can be difficult. In Lomography’s case, they were able to regain full access, but all of their content and followers vanished, prompting the company to ask us, the community, to re-follow as they rebuild their presence on the platform. See…
