I might agree with this, but I must experiment with the new
Reala film before doing this with a paying job. However, the
one major benefit of T400CN was the extreme exposure latitude.
But that is also it's downfall. Only with the underexposed
stuff have I been able to get good blacks, but to get the
sparkling highlights this film likes to be overexposed a bit.
The sharpness goes up with overexposure too.
I know that Portra 160NC scans well.
