color film showcase

Just received my first rolls of developed film, one of which is the Elektra 100. Figured I'd share some thoughts and images. Anyone else shooting with this or any of the other Aerocolor IV respools (Santa Color 100, Luminaire 100, maybe some others I'm not aware of) who wants to contribute...

Overexposed it based on some reading I'd done. Seems to have been a mistake. There's not enough latitude and the hightlights are easily blown. Probably better to treat it like slide film rather than negative film in that regard. Still, here's some of what I got from roll one: Nikon F4...

No thread for this one, so why not.

There wasn't a thread for this film stock yet. I just developed a roll yesterday using the Cinestill C41 2-bath kit, here are the selects, scanned using the Pro Image 100 profile in Silverfast on the Pacific Image XAs. I like these results, it is not the most color neutral/realistic, at least...

Okay, I'll start this one up, for the Kodachrome 25 fans...:). Regards, Edd

Latest scans back from Silverpan (and edited in Luminar 3). I think the Orca B&W is a nicer film, plus the little Auto 110 shoots 200 at 100 so they get a bit overexposed, and there isn’t the latitude to correct completely. That said, given the size of the camera these aren’t too bad.

Trying this for the first time. It can be grainy as you might expect. Taken with a Minox 35GT. Bluebell woods by -theoldsmithy- Bluebell woods 2 by -theoldsmithy- Path 2 by -theoldsmithy- Watermill chimney by -theoldsmithy- Bark by -theoldsmithy-
