RECIPROCITY
No filter corrections or exposure adjustments for exposure times from 1/1000 of a second to 1/10 second. In the
10 second range, increase exposure 1 stop and use a KODAK Color Compensating Filter CC 20Y.
This graph shows a measure of the visual sharpness of this film. The
DIFFUSE RMS GRANULARITY CURVES ➤
To find the rms granularity value for a given density, find the density on the left vertical scale and follow horizontally to the sensitometric curve and then go vertically (up or down) to the granularity curve. At that point, follow horizontally to the Granularity Sigma D scale on the right. Read the number and multiply by 1000 for the rms value.
These curves depict the sensitivity of this film to the spectrum of light. They are useful for determining, modifying, and optimizing exposure for blue- and
SPECTRAL
These curves depict the spectral absorptions of the dyes formed when the film is processed.
They are useful for adjusting or optimizing any device that scans or prints the film.
