Well that is a nice first color scan - with the 80 MP Pixel-Shift mode from the Olympus OM-1 camera, combined with the M.Zuiko ED 60 mm ƒ2.8 Macro lens, plus the VALOI 120 scanning device.
I think it looks good !
Color negative films are slightly less resolving, compare to pure Black & White film at ISO 100 or lower. Therefore the OM-1 + Macro lens and 50 or 80 MP pixel-shift, do offer an good alternative to scan images.
I will try to optimize it at much as possible in order to see if i can get out slightly better micro resolution. I closed the aperture quite a it (ƒ9), which might be slightly too much when you work with micro Four Thirds sensors (which has a very small pixel pitch, actually that of a 80 Million (sub)pixel sensor in the OM-1 and OM-1 II). So, if you stop down too much, you get diffraction (the higher the Megapixel density is on an image sensor). That in return leads to less micro details as you stop down too much (which then also might affect the 80 MP pixel-shift performance overall). I might use ƒ5.6 instead, and see how that turns out.
So, i still have to do optimizations.
