Hello, all!
I just got access to a darkroom so I am going to start doing my first round of zone system calibrations. As one of the final steps, Brian Lav suggests making a gray scale using your process for future reference. Rather than blow through 10 sheets of film would it be safe to do the following:
Set up a gray card and meter for a zone 1 exposure. Pull my dark slide out 1/10th of the way and expose. Pull it out 1/10th more of the way and expose again. Continue until you have (in theory) a 10-step grayscale. Does that work how I think it will? Because the first step got exposed to a zone 1 exposure ten times, does that make it Zone X?
Thanks, y'all!
