I'm fooling around with Ektar 100 in both 120 and 4x5 and noted that it has a very long dynamic range but less resolution than some other standard B/W films. Note that in this instance, I'm shooting Ektar 100 then processing as C-41 then scanning then digitally printing OR making digital negatives. I like the control that fooling with the RGB channels gives me for some subjects but have also noticed that some of the negatives/prints have an odd (not natural) 3D look as well. Is anyone else using Ektar 100 to produce B/W as a way to have two options when printing?
I'm an experienced B/W shooter with 30 years of large format so I'm not looking for a why I should only shot B/W.
Thanks
Brian
