Procedure Click the Film Type box on the control panel and select the film type. Click the box to open the pull-down menu. Hint • For a slide mount select, 35 mm Color Pos. • To change the film type, execute preview again. Film Characteristics The various film types have distinctly different characteristics. Exposure latitude, for example, is not the same for negative and positive films. Negative films provide greater latitude because the exposure can be adjusted when prints are made. Positive films require greater precision when a picture is taken. In addition, positive film can produce a starker contrast between shadows and highlights without producing sepia tones. 18 18
