Yes, I would think that question would be very important to those of us
Panoaramic's who are scanning.  Transparency's always seem better, but would
certainly like to have more input on this

Input:

To kick off this thread, it is known about the consistency of reversal
(transparency) films that offer merely one and a half stops latitude in
their emulsion.  While, negative films offer as much as five stops.

I wold imagine, to scan the reversal film, the scanner would be less taxed
to render all the colors balanced at the same intensity or within a small
altitude of ay one and a half stops, and that would make scanning
transparencies easier.
