Re: filmscanners: Negatives vs. slides in new scanners



There is no question that most negative color films are lower contrast 
and have a wider exposure range than their equivalent speed in slide 
film.  If your scanner/scanner software has good ability to translate 
the dye masks in negative films, you will get better results overall 
with negative film in high contrast situations.  Keep in mind, slides 
are designed for projection and need that contrast.

Astia, which is, I assume, the film you are referring to, is a lower 
contrast Fuji slide film (lower than the regular Provia, although I am 
not sure about the Provia F).  However, if you have used Sensia II 100, 
then you have used Astia 100, at less cost.  The films are identical.
