The slide mount is standard cardboard/paper and is not removable without destroying the paper- it is possible for you to remove the film from the slide and mount it on your own mount. This slide was created on a Polaroid 7000 Film Recorder which had output at 4096x2732, The actual quality as recorded by my unique DPI/LPI indicator found on the slide itself is approximately 4000dpi which is typical of this film type- average film resolution. The slightly slanted appearance when scanned is due to the industrial mounting process - the film itself is straight and true and can be mounted on your own slide mount (yes one empty plastic slide mount is included). Use my slide for experimenting with your scanner to achieve the best results using specialty software (no software is provided here) or standard image editing software (software you already own) to get the colors and settings just right. Includes many unique features such as 1. Color Saturation 3-Stage 4-Level Brightness/Contrast Scale2. CMYK and RGB Scales3. Skin Tone Image and Mini-Scale4. Corner Measurement Angles Connected by Straight Lines5. Grayscale 0% to 100%6. DPI & LPI estimator7. Wording and Numbers in various sizes and styles8. Two resolution indicator orbs 35mm slides are extremely sensitive to scratches and cannot be cleaned with a cotton swab or touched with your finger. I provide no fancy package and my price is low. Compare to many big-name companies selling one calibration slide for several hundred dollars each! Mine is a few bucks and also has a money back guaranty. I do my best to show the actual object and describe it thoroughly. Why Do You Need a Calibration Slide? Most people don't. Many people buy department store slide scanners and are perfectly happy with the standard color scanning they can get out of ordinary scanners and the software that comes with it. On the other hand, some people want to tweak their colors and correct the fading and off-colors as slide film ages. A slide with a color chart helps them to tweak the grayscale and blacks until they are colorless and not blue-ish or red-ish or green-ish. They also like to see if their scanner can truly pick up fine details (I have a resolution indicator built-in which will confirm whether you can see that level of detail) and the most important reason is color accuracy which the colors can help you see the full color range and tweak settings in your software. Of course, squareness or corners and lines is also part of the slide. Is it a necessity- for most people no. For those that want to tweak their colors until they are right- that is my target audience. Satisfaction Guaranty Not happy? Email me and receive your money back. Please no nasty or negative feedback about crookedly mounted slides etc as- this is for the Kodak Elite Slide film enthusiast and is sold as processed by a standard film processing lab. The crooked mount (film at a slight angle) will help you notice that your own slides may not be straight and level either. The square structure of the film content portrayed inside of a square frame/border/mount helps you see the inaccuracy inherent in the mounting process itself- as done by a professional lab's machine. The film scanners on the market have different resolutions and color rendition accuracy (let's face it - some scanners are truly great and others are not) and my product may make you wish for a better scanner (choose the best scanner with color accuracy and highest DPI Dots Per Inch possible for best scanning results.) I also provide 1 empty plastic snap together slide in case you would like to remove the film from the paper slide and mount it yourself. For the purists- leave the slide in its original paper mount. Either way - I got you covered as I will include one genuine Polaroid Slide mount with every order. The materials to make this new product are Genuine 100% Kodak Elite Chrome. I use commonly available film processing for accurate comparison results to your very own slide library. My unique product is really the image itself. The materials, tools and processes to make my product are all standard and well regarded. The selection of colors, the resolution gauge indicators, and fleshtone images are unique. There is no other product which duplicates it. It took alot of work, effort, math and more to provide this resource. I hand drew every bit of it using graphics software. The critical part was the knowledge to create this slide with a mouse in one hand and a calculator in the other hand. You'll love the slide and its low price will astound you when compared to slides selling for hundreds of dollars each. My slide is for the budget conscious buyer who needs a professional target slide to be used exclusively for Kodak Elite Chrome comparison of your own library of slides. This is not intended to compare other brands or makes of film. Made with Kodak Elite Chrome Slide Film and is made for Kodak Elite Chrome Slide Film use.
