Not personally, however, I admit some camera's look brilliant with a different paint job. It probably isn't something everyone will be looking to do, especially with a camera of high value (?), although if you aren't looking to flip it or make $$$ out of it - why not? I'm seriously considering...

@foc thanks a bunch for these - really appreciate. 🥳

@EarlJam thanks for these - I saw the Dufaycolor on the website @Ian Grant suggested, and I really like the look of this process. And the Finlay Colour process looks *really* interesting also. :smile:

Yes, those resources are excellent, @Ian Grant. I'll have look to see if the book you mentioned is floating around too - might get lucky on the Internet Archive! :)

@koraks thanks for this, I was going to include some article links as well, so these suggestions will come on very handy. :)

Thanks @Kino :)

Thank you! I haven't actually seen this one - I might have to add to my own collection for future research. :)

Hi Matt, yes, this was one of the caveats I was going to include. For example, we have truckloads of the old Agfa CNS transparencies in the collection and the archivists have often asked why these in particular have shifted so badly. I have explained (superficially) that there were several...

Thanks everyone, these are great and will be really helpful as I write up the "Processes" section. Knew I could count on you all to help me find a wealth of information!🙏😀

The more information I have to provide them with details they feel are important to their side of the equation, the better. I would prefer to have as much "ammo as possible" so to speak, which allows me to prepare a guide that matches their needs, instead of having to research later, because...

Ah thanks, @Romanko - Agfa will always be my first love in the film word. 😍

Thank you! This is one amazing process - who would have thought potatoes could be used for creating photographs?!

Thanks for your kind offer, @foc. I’d love to see the old BJP info! Please post here when you can - others may be interested at some stage too. 🙏🏻😊

Thank you! I did a quick search on Dr G., but the results were less than stellar. I have used this site before - but stupidly hadn't bookmarked it. . . . . 🤦‍♂️

Hi everyone. I've been asked to put together a guide for some of my work colleagues (archivists), who know very little about film, and have asked for help to identify what they are being asked to work with in collections. For colour negative film, I want to provide a list of the original...
