    Also, a black light is just a fancier name for longer wavelength UVA light, around 400nm. Looking at kodak e100’s data sheet, magenta forming layer is not sensitive to anything below about 475nm. That means only yellow forming layer is being exposed when you shoot a black light. We all know that in developing yellow creates its opposite color, which is blue, and thats why it looks blue. Unlike film, digital cameras use Bayer filter on top of pixels, that means every 4 pixels, usually RGGB, have around the same sensitivity to light. violet is about R:G:B=1:0:2, for film red is created by Cyan forming layer, which is completely not exposed, but for digital cameras red subpixel can be exposed, and that renders black lights the color they should look like.

    I actually tried the new CS6 Dynamic dev and got some incredible results in Provia. But I also wildly missed exposure (I think) on a number of shots when I was shooting Provia and E100. So I can't say yet how Dynamic holds up for E100, though I suspect fairly well.
    Interestingly, a lot of the slides that didn't come out were at night for me. Ektar and T-Max 100 were slam dunks but E100 and Provia were not. So either I didn't develop correctly and/or I missed exposure. I've been having a lot of issues getting consistent results from slide in general, and I think it's because I'm not paying attention to where the lightlights should fall such that for lower contrast scenes, my results are dense. I think it's because I need to make sure my highlights reach up to say +3 (or maybe +4 with E100?) when I meter.
    Anyways curious how to handled that since the images look fantastic!
