Expand description
What the developed strip did, as a densitometer reads it.
A print is a picture; the chart beside it is the measurement the picture
came from. The wedge is kallo-view’s, because that is the one the
committed strip was drawn from: nine patches from −2.0 to +0.8 log
exposure, the same span in both places, so a chart of a developed roll can
be read against the chart the app ships.
The numbers are not the curve sampled at nine exposures. They are what an
instrument reads off the developed strip: the dye the development formed,
plus the base, fog and mask the light also passes through. That is the
difference between a characteristic curve and a densitometer reading, and it
is the difference the interface’s isMeasured names.
