    Negative Scanning 35mm Film into .PSD sequence

    Posted by Hayden Martin on May 19, 2015 at 5:43 pm

    Hi

    I’m curious about this and don’t know where else to post it

    I have a 35mm reel that I want to get developed and scanned as a 32bit .PSD sequence…

    The reason I want a .PSD sequence is because I don’t know of any video codecs with that degree of colour depth… Unless there are some? It would be great to know, and to see some examples of them in use too.

    I am very interested in HDR colour grading

    best,
    Hayden

    This is first and foremost a question of the dynamic range of the scanner, not just the container it saves into.

    I’ve never heard of a scanner doing PSD’s. DPX or TIFF sequences are the usual suspects there.
