Thought I lost all of my old testing work, but here is a crop of Provia 100f detail testing.
I thought people might find this interesting, as you can see that even at the highest contrast, that the contrast in detail just fucks off and disappears into nothing.
And that it is unrealistic to expect fine details to be originally high contrast like the highest contrast target.
At high contrast the target ends at 8 - 9 which is 69 lp/mm to 77 lp/mm.
Which is around 20mp in 35mm format minimum needed to represent that.
Yet at 8-9 on the target its barely visible at all and looks like crap obviously. Though it is technically there.
It is also very false to equivocate it to a 20mp digital image however, on 20mp with digital, it would be much much much clearer and worlds better.
