But if you really want to see the camera's exposure accuracy, shoot slide film. Only by scanning the film, or printing each frame individually (not a contact sheet) can you judge the over or under exposure. Scanning the contact sheet will tell you nothing. You can't tell from the contact sheet, because the lab already "made an adjustment" to what the operator thought was right. It could be that the outdoor shots are fine but the indoor shots are underexposed. However, with a contact sheet, the whole roll can only be printed at one exposure setting. Negative film has a wide exposure latitude, and the lab will adjust the exposure during the printing stage in order to compensate for under and over exposure in the negative. In that case, you cannot judge the exposure by contact sheets. <<<<īradford, because you mention contact sheets, I assume you have used negative film. I have scanned the contact sheets and tried to determine. ![]() Help, I just got some contact sheets back and i have noticed that when I take pics in bright sun (sunny 16 rule type sun) my pics are almost always overexposed but when indoors or in the shade, everything is fine.
