In the latest ap mag they say slide film has a large dynamic range and that is an issue for scanners. Everywhere else on t'internet everyone says the opposite apart from the odd lone voice that agrees with ap.
So which is true and are there any actual proper scientific tests including the known ev range? Also I wonder whether the nay sayers are confusing dynamic range with exposure latitude hence saying it is low on dynamic range because they haven't exposed correctly? But if exposure is so critical then wouldn't it follow more logically that slide film has a narrow dynamic range as exposure errors manifest more easily?
Both sides can't be right . . .
