Try this mind exercise. Assume 2 films ... both the same speed and
resolution, and the grain is equivelent ... but one is a chrome which puts
10 f-stops within a film density equivelent to 3.0. The other is a negative
which puts the same 10 f-stops in a density of 2.5. To achive the same
tonal range by scanning, you need to ask the scan of the negative to
increase the contrast ... which will enhance the grain.
