    Velvia 50 – color reversal film expired for 18 years.

    I made a test with Provia 400 with Lubitel 2 camera (Proba 447 Provia 400). For the last test on Provia 400 has given the pink tint - magenta I walked in the process. Besides, I still had a problem that I did not have enough black & white developer and kept the film in the wash for about 45...

    Velvia 50 – color reversal film expired for 18 years.

    I made a test on Provia 400, expired from 2001-9. I'm having trouble with the Pentacon Six camera which has begun two times to make me worry about exposure times. Exposure 1/125 stops working, the curtain stays open until I rearm. So, from sample 445, at Velvia 50 I went to work with 1/500 and...

    Velvia 50 – color reversal film expired for 18 years.

    In order to have a more accurate idea of what is achieved by silver retention in the color image I have another comparative example normal color image with color image with all silver and color image with partial bleaching. It's a reversible color image that I've underexposed when I shooting...

    Velvia 50 – color reversal film expired for 18 years.

    I used in all tests Velvia 50, expired since 2001-3. I want to recall you that sample (Proba 445) is a partial bleching of Proba 444. The silver image was removed only partially - not altogether. You can choose the degree of bleaching desired by each - to taste. Silver can be gradually removed...

    Bleach bypass processing?

    I want to recall you that sample (Proba 445 is a partial bleching of Proba 444. The silver image was removed only partially - not altogether. You can choose the degree of bleaching desired by each - to taste. Silver can be gradually removed from the color image. After fixation, silver can not be...

    Velvia 50 – color reversal film expired for 18 years.

    In order to see what is happening in the color image that still has an silver image I have done a test – Proba 445. Silver-444 with silver image I sank about half in a diluted bleach solution. I washed, fix, washed and stabiliser. The photogram did not feel well in the spiral so that it could...

    halfaman, please forgive me for the expression of post no. 20. With pleasure for examples and you can still see something else.

    Bleach bypass processing?

    I made a new test with Velvia 50 expired since 2001-3. I did my process E6 and a silver removal process from black and white development and the elimination of bleaching after the color developer. That's how it came out to me. I think I'll try to make some partial bleaching at the silver in the...

    By modifying the composition of the solutions I can modify the color of the chromatic of reversible color images obtained through my process. See examples: Excuse the scans that have edges to the image with reflections. Because the edges are not pressed. George

    Velvia 50 – color reversal film expired for 18 years.

    The photos were taken with a Pentacon Six camera with the Carl Zeiss Jena Flektogon 50mm f / 4 lens. I scanned it with an Epson V800 with a 9 x 12 cm mask to cover the black edges. The film stood only on one edge in the frame, the other edge was free in the air. Exposure I made to ISO 50 (1/125...

    Bleach bypass processing?

    I do not use film processing kits (C 41 or E6). I'm making my chemical solutions from raw chemicals. Do you think that in modern color negatives a stabilization bath with formalin is spoiled for preservation over time? About bleaching and fixation you are talking about the visual effect on the...

    Velvia 50 – color reversal film expired for 18 years.

    I did my tests with the reversible color process, compatible with E6. Fresh films I did not have, so I used an Velvia 50, expired since 2001-3. You can see the results here. The images were corrected as close as possible to the image on the film. I think that it does not look very bad for a...

    How to (consistently) make positive E-6 transparencies with C-41 chemicals

    earlz, look in the inbox and say which picture looks closer to the image in your tests? George

    How to (consistently) make positive E-6 transparencies with C-41 chemicals

    earlz, if I look at your pictures I think you should need a safe tripod. Once you have some good pictures in the sun, you can go to against daylight and night pictures ..... You have to see that for an E6 film you can make good pictures. Are the scans shown calibrated to be as close as possible...
