I would have thought it the other way around. Slide film has a greater
dynamic range.

I don't know what was in Yves' mind but from my perspective, the dynamic
range of a slide is much greater than that of a negative, and it must
therefore be more demanding of the scanner to reproduce that dynamic range.

I always thought the dynamic range of slide film was about 4 stops and
of color negative film about 5-5.5 stops.  Am I wrong?
