I believe you will find Callier Effect only occurs with collimated
light passed through a silver emulsion. Diffuse light does not exhibit
Callier Effect. The effect on scanning would depend on the light source
type and optical system (if any) used to deliver the light to the film.
Scanning B&W silver based film almost certainly does not come out
neutral,
because of the Callier effect - the scattering of light due to solid
grains
of silver. Conversion to grayscale, via standard conversion or channel
mixing is definitely required.
