John, Could you describe colour aliasing. I can't find the term in the literature I have. I know that aliasing is about how the transition between adjacent contrasting areas of an image is managed. I can't understand how the concept relates to the way that the colours of an image are managed. Of course the two concepts may be completely separate and the common word is a red-herring.

Albano, I really appreciate what you're doing. Would I be asking too much if I suggested that you separate the print films and the slide films? -Rich Albano Garcia wrote: These are the conditions: 1 - You must answer off-list, right to me. 2 - You must choose your favorite emulsion (35 and 120/220 allowed.

That's exactly why I asked: I don't know which ones are slide and which are print films. If I usually just want to get a picture into my computer for web, email, or other use is there any benefit in using slide film versus print film? -Rich Albano, I really appreciate what you're doing.

Richard Klein asked: If I usually just want to get a picture into my computer for web, email, or other use is there any benefit in using slide film versus print film? It depends. Mostly it depends on your scanner. If all you have is a medium-resolution flatbed scanner (under 600dpi) then your best choice is to scan prints. If you have a high-resolution scanner with a transparency adapter, or if you have a film/negative scanner, you have more options. Negatives have a lower density range than slide films (especially high-saturation slide films like Velvia), so they are easier to scan. They also capture a wider range of intensities, and so you are less likely to have burned-out highlights or featurelesss areas of shadow. But these benefits don't come without drawbacks - the contrast compression results in less midrange detail, and even the best orange mask removal can cause colour aliasing artifacts and/or a slight colour cast at the extreme ends of the intensity range. -- John Francis . . . . . . . . . .

Re: Favorite Film Roll Call Results UPDATE 28
Certainly a difference can be cost. In some areas slides are cheaper and others prints are cheaper. One way that I hold down cost is to use negative film and just have it processed but not printed. Since I am scanning anyway, C-41 process costs me US $2.29 per roll and E-6 costs me $5.99. Usually print film is 1-2 dollars cheaper per roll. So for me, cost is a big difference. Also, the quality of scanner can be important. The higher contrast of the slide can be more demanding to scan.
