I have an interest in learning to produce film negatives from a digital file with the ultimate goal of being able to use them to make both contact and enlarged prints on silver gelatin paper. Because of the massive interest in making digi negs using inkjet processes, it's super duper hard to find info on this (i.e. noise to signal ratio is very bad). I have several reasons for avoiding the inkjet route, but the simplest is probably this: I have a large format friendly darkroom, and I make both contact and enlarged prints. I have found the few services which print to film, but what I am missing is info on optimizing tone curves, how the print to film process impacts the image etc. I'd like to get some anecdotal information from someone who is familiar with this process if at all possible. I'd love to hear your wisdom and/or suggestions for further reading. Thank you!
