I have a question concerning digital capture (scanning or digital
photography)
that need answering. If I have a scene or negative that has a contrast range
that it less than the sensor/scanner ( i.e. the histogram width is narrower
that the histogram width range), is it better to:


1. center the recorded histogram
2. bias the histogram towards the lighter tones taking care not
   no clip any highlights
3. bias the histogram towards the darker tones taking care not
   to clip any of the darker/black tones

I have a feeling the correct way is #2 or possibly #1 but I am not sure.
Anyone know?
