Main advantages and disadvantages of color negative film and color reversal film

1. The main purpose of color negative film is to print and play color photos. This is an extremely wide range of uses. Whether stored in a personal photo album or exhibited at a film festival, color photos are easy to watch directly, unlike color reversal films that require a slide projector and a screen.

2. color negative can also be used to make color slides. However, it is necessary to purchase color positive films separately for reproduction, and the process is complicated, so the quality of the slides produced is not as good as that of color reverse films. However, when a full set of slides is needed in batch, it is more economical to use color negative film than color reverse film, because the price of color positive film for reproduction is lower.

3. color negative can also be used to make black and white photos. . There is full-color black-and-white photographic paper for printing black-and-white photos on color negative, which can print high-quality black-and-white photos. When color is usually printed on black-and-white photographic paper, the contrast of the image is small, the number of layers is small, and the due blackness is lacking.

4. The exposure latitude of color negative film is greater than that of color reverse film; The color temperature of light source is not as strict as that of color reversal film, so color negative film is easier to shoot than color reversal film.

Second, color reversal film;

1, color reversal film is also called reversal film and color film for slide show. According to the different color temperature of development after shooting, it is necessary to compensate the color temperature with the help of LB filter and CC filter.

2. Compared with color negative film, the exposure latitude is narrower, but the color reproducibility is better under proper exposure. Enlarge and develop with color reversal film, positive film-positive film method (CB photo), or convert into intermediate film and enlarge and develop with negative film-positive film method. In the past, it was used for slide shows or printing manuscripts.
