Using the Scanner
4-1
Knowledge
of
Films
There
are
two
basic
formats
for
35
mm
film
, one being
positive
and the
other
negative. When
looking
at positive
film
, the
viewed
image
appears
as you would expect the
printed
image
to
appear
. When looking at negative film,
the
image
is
color
reversed with
light
areas
looking
dark
and
dark
areas
appearing
light.
Typically
, negative
film
is associated with
print
film
, and
positive
film
is
associated with
slide
film. The
scanner
can handle
either
the
positive
or
negative
film
formats
.

Both sides of the
film
are
not
the
same
. One
side
is
called the
emulsion
side
. For
optimum
scanning
, the
emulsion
side
should face
the
bottom
of
the
scanner
, as
shown in Figure 4.2.
In
many
cases, the advantage of
having the
emulsion
facing
down
may
be
minimal.
