Interpolation

Laziferous · 3rd of April 2004 (Sat)

Do any of you use interpolation software? I've seen Genuine Fractals mentioned a few times. What about S-Spline Pro, or anything else you use? I've used PS to gradually increase the size, but with the algorithim it uses, no matter how small the increments, it isn't up to the quality I'm seeking. Any suggestions?

Some prints I'd like to make larger than 11x14, and with a G2, it just isn't going to happen without interpolation.

I've seen HP printing 3 MP pics on 42 inch paper, and the quality was very impressive. They just printed from ACDSee without any modifications or interpolation, so maybe interpolation isn't the trick?

I have not used it,. but I too have heard that genuine Fractals is the way to go.

In fact,. along with all the stuff I read on the 'net... just the ohter day Charles_U and I were talking on the phone and he was seaking very highly of Genuine Fractals.. with the 4MP files that the 1D captures,. apperently by using Genuiane Fractals you can make some monster sized prints.

Thanks for the input fellas'. After doing further research, I found that S-Spline seems to get better reviews, but that neither are a vast improvement over PS. Not enough to warrant the purchase of either anyway. I'll just work out an action to use instead.

Thanks again guys.
