O que é melhor: digitalizar uma foto a partir do negativo ou da imagem impressa?

O que é melhor: digitalizar uma foto a partir do negativo ou da imagem impressa?
Na teoria, o ideal seria utilizar o negativo, já que ele é a melhor versão da imagem que se pode ter. Só que nem todo scanner suporta esse tipo de mídia (seja em negativos ou slides). E mesmo os que trazem tal facilidade, o resultado nem sempre é satisfatório. Além disso, se você vai digitalizar umas poucas imagens - mesmo que utilize um rolo de negativo inteiro - sempre é mais fácil identificar o que se quer a partir de fotos impressas.

Mas se fizer isso a partir de negativos, utilize a resolução de 2.000 pontos por polegada ou mais, se o dispositivo permitir. Esse tipo de suporte contém muito mais informação do que a presente no material impresso, porém armazenada em um espaço físico muito menor.
