![]() ![]() In the above Velvia 100 processing, I also put in a roll of Superia 400 that I actually cared about a bit. After doing some research I’ve found it’s most likely from too strong of development. The red splotch is weird, it seems to only affect highlights. So there is definitely something happening here. Here is some more interesting pictures from this roll: It looks awesome… but what the hell happened? Here is the raw scan: until we get a bit further into the roll. So, shortening by 3 minutes should pull by 1 stop.Ī heavy mask, but otherwise a pretty normal image…. Lengthening it by about 3 minutes, effectively pushes about 1 stop. 45 minutes is usually the perfect stand time for C-41 development. I also decided to pull the film in the C-41 process by about 1 stop. I was thinking maybe this red splotch is from developer not getting in through the layers, so I needed more developer and stronger mixtures. 63F, 42 minute total, agitate first minute, and then once at 20 minutes Re-expose with iPhone flashlight, for about 4 minutes.agitate first minute, and every 30 seconds after B/W developer heated and temp controlled at 105F.The results are interesting, but also unpredictable. So, I was really curious what would happen when I put it through this process. So many vibrant colors, and such deep blue skies. This is my favorite slide film for normal E-6 processing. That roll of film came out over developed, but otherwise pretty normal with no crazy weird color shifts. ![]() I also had a roll of C-41 film I was testing this process on. Note, my chemicals were completely fine through this process, I developed normal C-41 film afterwards with no bad results. I’m thinking that the film is over developed because CR200 can’t handle as much development as Provia maybe? But really I have no idea. Ok, so something definitely went wrong here. Why does the wall have a sort of glow to it where it meets the dark pavement? The last one is particularly interesting. Here’s some more pictures from hell for your entertainment: This one looks almost like it has color, but there is still a huge lack. It seems my developing tank temporarily became a portal to hell capable of imaging an alternate reality. What!? Yea, I have no idea what happened to the color spectrum either. Open tank and re-expose for 4 minutes over iPhone flashlight.30 seconds initial agitation, 4 agitations every 30 seconds after B/W developer temp controlled and heated to around 108F.B/W developer mixed 1:6 (Arista Premium Liquid).This was the first film I processed of the slide film batch from Europe, and was the most shocking. Definitely some expected color shifts, but an otherwise very normal looking image.Īnd below is the raw scan without any color correction other than whatever the scanner does automaticallyĪnd this film turned out very transparent, though I thought it could still use another half stop or so of development:Īfter I did this, I was confident that I could just raise the developer time a bit, maybe the temp as well, and hopefully get consistently good images from this process… well, no. Open tank and re-expose for 4 minutes about 6 inches over an iPhone flashlight.30 second agitation initially, with 4 agitations every 30 seconds after B/W developer temp controlled and heated to around 102F.B/W developer mixed 1:6 rather than the normal 1:9 (Arista Premium Liquid).I never made a blog post about this batch, but this was the last strip I processed of my test roll when first figuring this process out. What it looks like after the B/W developer phase (if you can’t see this much detail, then you should’ve developed it longer) Fuji Provia 100 (at home) Also, each film type behaves quite differently in this process, as you’ll see. I get consistent pictures at least, but I can’t determine how to control these strange splotchy color shifts and highlight fogging. After doing my 3rd roll, I’ve found that I have no idea what is really happening in this process. I was really hoping that by the time I had most of the rolls developed, I’d have a fairly predictable and good (even if with wild colors etc) process figured out… Unfortunately, that is incorrect. When I got back home I started to try to figure out how to perfect this C-41 reversal process. ![]() I took a variety and shot them pretty much at box speed. I recently went on a trip to Europe and basically took some slide film solely to experiment with. ![]()
