Anyone tried FPP ISO 3 colour film? On sale...


I would like to see the results of contact printing as intended when you get around to it.
 
I tried photographing a variety of negatives using a very short, mostly fogged 3383 remainder from my mamiya 16 cassette. The negatives were poorly illuminated with a 40W incandescent bulb and given 1/5s exposure @ f2.8, developed ecp-2, scanned as positive.


Top to bottom: Pro Image 100 (dense), Gold 400, Vision3 500T w/ 85B, Kodak 2254. (and some ektachrome peeking in at the edge).

The last two frames are the 'cleanest' and were taken through Y50 and M50 filtration, respectively.



Not unexpectedly, 2254 needs even heavier filtration to print with anything close to a normal color balance.

Probably worth another attempt in a 35mm body with a faster lens to get the exposure into the 1/20s+ range and tweak the filtration.

Edit: Another round, same lamp. Unfiltered, Y50, M50, Y50+M50





This stuff would be amazing (and affordable?) in 4x5 or 8x10 sheets.

I finally shot a roll @ 6iso using a Nikon f100. Results were underexposed, even with an orange filter was very blue, nearly no colour.
Will try again giving it 2 more stops and see how it is.
Looks nice with lights, can get a nice jade green with fluorescent lights and reds and pinks stand out.

How are you colour correcting?
 

You shot a roll of the ISO 3 film, but rated it at ISO 6, then added an orange filter?
That would make it at least 1 stop underexposed (assuming your camera compensates for the orange filter).

I color correct with negativelabpro when I convert. Any of the predominantly blue images I have shown are not color corrected.
 
what a perfect thread– pix, delicious commentary, more pix
thnx
 

6 iso was what was on the box. F100 has TTL metering.
Also probably didn't develop long enough for the temp I was using.
Also Also I wasn't sure the bulk loader was defective or not.
Also Also Also, I just bought a non working F100 and it was my first test run.
Have capacity to do around 15 more rolls before chemistry and film is completely exhausted. Plenty of scope to fix some user errors.
Also Also Also Also am going to try my hand at colour printing where I will make many more errors.
Hopefully I will end up with a few pretty colour pictures to hang on the wall.


 
Stopping down 2 stops to iso 1.5 made a big difference.
Better colours out doors when using an orange filter.
Indoors no filter
I need to hone my channel mixing skills.
Need to hold the camera very steady

Indoors natural light 6 sec exposure, no filter, no reciprocity correction, nikon f100, f1.8 50mm D lense



f 1.8 no filter hand held.



Same as above



Out doors, f 2.8 20mm d lens with gradual orange filter



Out doors with out filter



Indoors with a tripod and no filter I think you can get something quite useable, out doors its a bit harder.
 

Yah, I shot it at ISO 3 which was what was recommended by my seller. And at 3 it did to come out exactly blazing with brightness!
 
Looks pretty awful, unless you like the way it looks.
