[Tig] [Longggg rolls and mouse corrections]

[Frank Hellmann]

Hi!

As I am living in "old-europe" I can only say that I am pretty happy 
with big 2000' 35mm rolls.

We do quite a bit of 2K/4K scanning for feature films and there is a 
huge difference between loading 350 rolls of 1200' or loading 200 rolls 
of 2000' per feature. The crucial point is to make sure that the tension 
applied by the telecine or scanner is correct. Handrolled rolls are 
definatly something to avoid.

With 16mm I agree that huge rolls are not the best option.

       Best,

             Frank...
