Exposure bias by film type

And those working with the print format, remember everyting is reversed.
If you are not sure, err on the side of over-exposing negative film.
An under-exposed negative has the same problem as an over-exposed slide.
The scale is different because of the greater exposure latitude and the
opportunity to compensate in the printing process, but when your density
is gone there is nothing you can do.
