Digital cameras with red sensitivity curves have the widest exposure range, making them capable of reproducing from -4.5 EV to the Middle Tone on the shadow side and from approximately 3.2 EV from the Middle Tone on the highlight side. (If the dynamic range (-) is 25 and the dynamic range (+) is 240 in Data Transfer Software) In addition, if there is a steep curve near the Middle Tone for all of the red, black and blue sensitivity curves, and the camera is capable of capturing data such that the further the curves move away from the Middle Tone, the flatter the curves become. The amount of change in the output level will be the same as the brightness near the Middle Tone, indicating that the camera is capable of reproducing clear contrast between the highlights and the shadows. On the other hand, if the change in output level is less than the change in brightness at a point that is far from the Middle Tone, this indicates that the camera is being made to be more able to reproduce fine detail in the highlight and shadow areas, which is difficult to reproduce, by controlling the density changes for the brightness changes. The purpose of finding out the characteristic curve of your digital camera is not to find out if the characteristics are good or bad. By understanding the characteristics of your digital camera, you will be able to understand how it will reproduce the brightness of a subject that you measure using a light meter. If you can shoot with lighting that uses the maximum exposure range of your digital camera, you will be able to take shots that bring out the best characteristics of your camera.
