DEPECTIVE
NEGATIVES.
By following closely the foregoing directions,
the
novice
can
make seventy-five
per
cent.,
or
upwards, of good negatives. Sometime;, however,
the
directions are
not
followed,
and
failures result.
To
forewarn
the
Kodaker
IS
to forearm him,
and
we therefore describe the
common
causes of failure.
UNDER-EXPOSDRE.
Caused
by
making
snap
shots indoors,
or
10
the shade,
or
when
the
light is
weak, late
in
the day,
by
closing
the
lens too soon
on
time exposures,
or
the
use
of
a small stop
in
the lens when
making
snap shots.
(The
A
Kodac
requires
no
stops.)
Under-exposure
is
evidenced
by
slowness
in
the
appearance
of
the
image
in
development,
and
the
absence
of
detail
in
the
shadows.
In
under-exposures
the
sky
appears
black,
in
development,
and
the
rest
of
the
negative
remains
white,
with
no
detail.
