miguelao has just submitted a new pull request for 
https://github.com/w3c/mediacapture-image:

== (#77) s/long/float/ in MediaSettingsRange ==
...and removed entries mentioning a x100 multiplier to avoid floating 
point.

Note that the [float](https://heycam.github.io/webidl/#idl-float) idl 
definition mentions:
> Unless there are specific reasons to use a 32 bit floating point 
type, specifications should use double rather than float, since the 
set of values that a double can represent more closely matches an 
ECMAScript Number.

but I feel that `float` can represent all foo our value ranges and is 
smaller in size.
