> Scala film is beautiful
for skin tones.However, shadow detail is a little muddy. Since not many
people have used Scala film for platinum purpose, its hard to get any tip
on this film. Would appreciate anyone's opinion on this film !<

Scala is really too contrasty for platinum prints. In US practice at 200
ISO you will lose too much detail in the shadows. Pulled by four ot five
stops it works quite well but you are likely to gry better results by
exposing onto FP4 and contacting back to get the interpositive.
