Emulsion Side The side of the film coated with emulsion. In contact printing and enlarging, the emulsion side of the film-dull side-should face the emulsion side of the photo paper-shiny side.
EMULSION SIDE - The side of the film or photographic paper that has the emulsion coating on it. The emulsion side of film is recognized by being dull, whereas the emulsion side of paper is shiny.
emulsion side
the side of the photosensitive stencil or photographic film that is coated with the light sensitive material.
emulsion speed
the rate of response to light under standard conditions of a light sensitive material.
Emulsion Side: In photography, the side of the film coated with the silver halide emulsion which faces the lens during exposure. It is the most susceptible to scratches.
-Emulsion side - side of the film coated with emulsion.
-Endoscope - optical device allowing the viewing and photography of small inaccessible subjects.
Touching the emulsion side of the film will affect the chemicals in the developing process, so try to remove the film without making any contact with the film itself.
ENLARGER AND EASEL ADJUSTMENTS Insert the negative in the negative carrier so the emulsion side is down when placed in the enlarger.
Place the strip on the printing easel, emulsion side up, in an important area that (hopefully) has both dark shadows and highlight areas. If there doesn't seem to be a good area with both, choose an important shadow.
78 One way of solving this problem is to cut off a 10- inch length of the film and to clip this strip, emulsion side up, on a dense, black plastic lath that is laid in the bottom of a tray of developer.
Either the emulsion side or the blank side can be covered with the varnish: when the blank side is blackened, the thickness of the glass adds a sense of depth to the image.
The emulsion side of film stock tends to be somewhat dull and non-reflective, but the surface of the typical digital sensor (or rather the filter that sits directly above it) is highly so.
The sheet of film has two sides, of course - the base side, and the emulsion side. You want to load your film holders so that the emulsion side is facing the lens, and the base side is facing the film holder. Telling the emulsion side is easy.
When making prints or copies, it's important to know which side is the emulsion side so that the image can be exposed in the correct orientation (not reversed).
Both negative and transparencies should be viewed with the emulsion side down and the base facing the observer. The emulsion side is dull-finished and very slight ridges can often be seen at the edges of the image elements.
Lay the unexposed paper down with the emulsion side facing up
Place the paper negative, face down, onto the unexposed paper

Although physically quite strong film is easily scratched, particularly the emulsion side when wet.
3) Straight scratches extending the length of the film. Tramlines.
