JUDGING NEGATIVE EXPOSURES
You can check the exposure level with a suitable electronic
densitometer equipped with a filter such as a KODAK
WRATTEN Gelatin Filter No. 92 or the red filter for
Status M densitometry. Depending on the subject and the
light source used for exposure, a normally exposed and
processed color negative measured through the red filter
should have the approximate densities listed below.
Because of the extreme range in skin color, use these red
density values for a normally lit forehead only as a guide. For
best results, use a KODAK Gray Card (gray side).
