At one workplace we didnāt have an in-house color lab. All of our 8x10 E6 was bracketed. Thereās too many very small variables, and if they donāt vary all in divergent directions they can add up to +/- 1EV. So in order to SAFELY move on to the next setup or location, you MUST bracket 3 sheets.
We had 8x10 Polaroid, but that is also a variable. It was used for reviewing the details of the shot. It was not a reliable gauge of exposure.
I didn't say we didn't bracket. I said we didn't bracket until we got what we wanted. A standard 3 frame bracket for E-6 is common.
