Erwin, in his books, totally discounts the use of colour negative film. It certainly is easier to scan, but the slides produce better images if you have a scanner up to the task." When I do shoot color I use only color negative film (Agfa Optima 100) because IMHO transparency film does not have sufficient range or scale. I do not photograph with a Leica in order to produce only scanned images or inkjet prints. If I recall correctly, were Erwin Puts's comments about transparency film not made in the context of image sharpness rather than scale?
