What is the experimental task to figure out how long to make a print in the darkroom?

• Overexposing

• Test strip

• Contact sheet

• Scanning

• A Digital Image

• Film

• A filter

• An Enlargement

When looking at a test strip, how does one visually tell a good exposure time?

• The area that is most grey is the best exposure

• The area that has the most overall black is the best exposure.
