[Alt-photo] Re: density Pictorico film

[Sandy King]

Chris,

I believe all of the Pictorico OHPs available at this time have a transmission UV of about log 0.23 - 0.27 so there is very little difference in that respect  between the regular Premium Pictorico and the kind called Ultra Premium. Both work fine for me, and are pretty much transparent in use.

I test the exposure of digital negatives directly with process, without any math for a final printing time. However, if I were doing a calculation log 0.23- 0.27 would be more than a 2/3 stop correction, al most a full stop, since log .03 is one stop.

I don't use, nor feel the need to, buy the Ultra Premium (is that the black label one?) but I do use the regular Pictorico and add 1/2 stop (by dividing the final printing time by .707). WIth your logs if I read logs correctly you are adding less than I, correct? I don't have a UV densitometer and just do it all by math and the Stouffers.

I have measured Pictorico with both an X-Rite 361T and a Gretage D200II so I am confident the density readings are reliable.
