This is true above 4.0 H&D, however as density reaches 4.0 H&D an<br />
extremely bright viewing light is necessary for evaluation.<br />
Density, technically should be stated "Transmitted Density" when associated<br />
with transparent-base film. This density is the log <strong>of</strong> the intensity <strong>of</strong> light<br />
incident on the film to the intensity <strong>of</strong> light transmitted through the film. A<br />
density reading <strong>of</strong> 2.0 H&D is the result <strong>of</strong> only 1 percent <strong>of</strong> the transmitted<br />
light reaching the sensor. At 4.0 H&D only 0.01% <strong>of</strong> transmitted light reaches<br />
the far side <strong>of</strong> the film.<br />
