Which grid configuration is described as stationary and fine-line?

• A. Low ratio grid
• B. Stationary fine-line grid
• C. High ratio grid
• D. No grid

Answer: (B)

A grid that is stationary and fine-line is a fixed grid with very thin lead strips and high line density. The stationary part means it does not move during the exposure, unlike bucky grids that glide to blur the lines. The fine-line aspect refers to the narrow lead strips and closely spaced interspaces, which reduces the visible grid lines on the image and allows higher detail, but it also requires precise centering to avoid grid misalignment and artifacts. So this combination—a fixed grid with thin, closely spaced lines—fits the description of stationary and fine-line best. The other options describe either the grid’s ratio or the absence of a grid, not its motion and line width characteristics.
