The density, exposure-time curves for x-rays of wavelength 4-6A, exhibit an initial region of linearity whose extent increases with the wavelength. At about 6A, the shape of the density, exposure-time curve suggests a tendency towards the familiar shape of the curve for the ultraviolet and visible regions.
