TIA! > > >Matt Bittner Well, it took a couple of days for me to get around to looking this up, but here is what I found. I managed to find three different photos of this beast in two different books. In Gray & Thetford "German a/c of WW I" there is a single photo on p.379. In the Harleyford Marine a/c volume there are two photos on p.71 and a short bit of text. As for the particulars on this machine, the wingspan was about 108 feet. Two machines were ordered in early 1918 as a competing design for the Gotha WD 14. Apparently only one machine, #3301, was constructed, powered by 4 Mercedes D-III 160 HP engines. The machine was scheduled to be delivered in June 1918 but there is no record of it ever reaching Warnemunde. This last point leads me to suspect that no SVK drawings were made. I suppose this means that any drawings of this airframe would have been in the Friedrichschafen archives (wonder what happened to these ?). The 160 horse engines would have made this a rather underpowered beast and there is no evidence that this aircraft actually flew. The three photos I found are of sufficently poor quality that little can be discerned about a color scheme other than to say it might have been "dark". No evidence of hexagon camouflage, painted or printed, but a squizzy at an original print would clear up this point.

Generally, yes, depending on exactly what you're doing. Nyquist's Law governs here, which states that the finest detail (highest frequency) you can record is half of your linear sample frequency. So you'd like to sample the image at least twice the final resolution, then use your bitmap editor to resample it down. One thing to watch for is aliasing artifacts occurring as detail too fine for the sample frequency you're using to record "wraps around" to lower frequencies. Since halftone grids (used in the lithograph process for most photographs in printed material) itself constitutes "fine detail," you can easily end up with a situation where you get regular bands or dots of increased/decreased intensity where there was none in the original photo. To eliminate this, go to a high enough sample frequency to record that detail. If your hardware can't do that, experiment with small changes in the sample frequency; if you can find a sufficiently "non-harmonic" ratio between the sample frequency and the halftone frequency (usually a small difference between the two) you can minimize the obtrusiveness of the effect. One other thing to note: if you're scanning in color, you should be aware that many scanners, particularly cheaper ones, have a distinct tendency towards enhancing the yellow unduly. If your scanner software doesn't allow you to adjust for this at scan time, you'll have to do it in your editor afterwards. Oh, yeah, one last thing: don't make too much use of the "enhancing" features in your editor, such as contrast enhancement or "sharpening." These "features" are actually inducing artifacts of their own, and can make the image detail actually vanish. So when you'd like to blow things up to, say, 400% in your file viewer to see some fine detail, it's not there because it's been "enhanced" out of existence. To see what I'm talking about, start with an image with some good detail, then "sharpen" it a few times (or once with extreme settings), then blow the image up and have a good look at what it did, which was to increase the contrast gradient wherever it found one. I think you'll agree the results are garbage. It's much better to get the best quality scan you can to begin with, from the best quality photo you can get, rather than try to get the editor to fix problems.

Of course this makes the scanned file size fairly large and the picture is usually very big when viewed on your monitor. I had scanned a 4x6 photo and without changing the scans resolution the print-out was the same size. After reducing the scanned image by 50% the print-out was 50% smaller. Of course there are a lot of variables, your computer, your monitor, your scanner and your printer. It would probably be best to experiment. I'm sure there is some magical mathematical formula to convert image size (800x600 pixels e.g.) to printed size (600 x 600 DPI e.g.).
