And also, what about digital sensors, how do they handle contrast compared to film?

I found this from Alfonso Cuarón in Team Deakins podcast which I find interesting:

“But yeah, it was pretty much like that. And the concern is interesting because our concern, I remember in the 90s with the films, with Little Princess, with Expectations, and even Y tú Mama, our big concern was the negative. And we had always complaints about the negative.

We were unhappy about the blacks, unhappy about the gray, unhappy about the poor dynamic range. And I’m saying that because now I know that there’s all these trends of thrashing digital because in the nostalgia of the negative that, by the way, I love negative. I think, you know, I think that suddenly we arrive to a place that is closer to what we were seeking for.

And it’s when more people are complaining now, not about the negative, but about the digital format. So I find that kind of, I find that very interesting.”
