@@SAGGING_GUT It's new in that they are creating something readily available for people to shoot. Oh yes, that "local" shop would respools ECN-2 process Kodak 250D, that doesn't exist or cost way more. It's about making film stock more accessible to everyone, while offering something different.

I have a fun idea: dslr or mirrorless scanning has become a very popular alternative to scanning film, so, what if you take a photo of another photo with film? Like, you scan a negative with your slr.. I mean, negative with negative=positive right? It would be interesting to see what that would look like, though its probably just a waste of money

Either to have back ups before the digital age (I used to send duplicates to the Image Libraries that I sold to:through way back when) , to increase contrast and saturation and to change tonality etc by copying, say Ektachrome onto Velvia.

It's most certainly another modified film of Kodak. They probably get the film delivered without the remjet now - translated into "not a repackaged motion picture film". It looks very similar to the Kodak Vision3 250D. Which can be had for $5 if you look around. Beats Portra all the way
@trulsdirio2 жыл бұрын

I naturally assumed this was 250D with the remjet removed. The higher ISO rating would be consistent with 800T, which is 500T. It does vaguely have a look of 250D.... did you have to cancel cyan out of the shadows when scanning? Nice film regardless.

It isn't 250D with the remjet removed, but it is 250D without remjet. They've gotten big enough to pay Kodak to deliver the film to them without applying the remjet at all. Hence the ambigous language on the website. Still 250D though :-) Which is good, cause it's a really nice film! Hopefully it will also result in better quality film with less scratches and such.

@@WillemVerb Really happy to hear that. I am still sort of upset this has halations. I think it's a misstep. Halations are a defect, and 400D is supposed to be a professional film. Its especially disappointing because CineStill says, "400D is specifically designed for still photography." Still photography film has antihalation layers built in that clear in bleach. To be clear, I love 50D and 800T, but Halations are not something I always want.

So you ran into my old coworker Mike, in San Pedro. Did he tell you he was a photographer? I can totally see him yelling jokes at you. When we were out shooting jobs, people would ask us to take their photo. He would always reply: " Sorry, I didn't bring my ugly filter." Good that you and some young folks are shooting film still. Personally, after all these years, I love digital. Having worked in color labs processing and color correcting a variety of films, the look of the film you tried is like nails on a blackboard - I spent too much time trying to correct issues with off brand film. As you said, the look is neat, but not on everything. Keep up experimenting! That's the fun part.
