Since I have been in this business I have always found that I have to adapt my shooting technique to the medium. Learning the capabilities of various films and how they will print or be reproduced, is part of being a photographer. My limited experience in digital conversion has seemed to indicate that images with more gradual curves seem to fair better. In response to this I am using more ASTIA less Velvia and have had a fair amount of success with Portra 160 NC. But I'd like to hear from Eric and others who deal with this combo (film-scan) everyday.
