Polaroid BLL Generator manual Non-LFC based Film Types

Page 36

Film Type

Film Type specifies the type of film in the camera back connected to the film recorder. Windows BLL Generator supports two types of film, LFC-based and non-LFC based. LFC based film choices rely on so-called LFC files that reside in the LGDATA\LFC directory. These LFC files contain transfer functions for specific film/film recorder combinations. The transfer functions of non-LFC based films have been pre-programmed￿into the film recorders.

NOTE: Choose LFC-based films over non-LFC-based films when possible!
