people make a big deal about how limited the dynamic range of slide film is.
is that true? can you get away with just not caring and auto-exposing it?
here I see how ektachrome 100 holds up to auto exposure.

chapters:
0:00 intro and some pics
0:40 in the field / quick demos
1:54 sharpness demo
2:15 dynamic range demo
2:38 discussion
4:19 outro

quick tech specs for nerds:

sharpness examples NOT shot on a tripod, but at 1/250-1/500
all shots on the crazy-sharp voigtlander 35/2 APO

all photos developed by photolab in berkeley, ca

scanned w/ fuji gfx 100 + 120/4 GF
(film mounted in negative.supply setup)
at f/11 (film flatness is hard!)
(single image, not stitched,
effective resolution 50+ MP,
effective DPI 6000+ (way more than is needed))

color edited to taste.
all scans are edited.
there's no such thing as a neutral scan,
and this isn't a scientific review.
