Hi all-
I am scanning a lot of my dad's old negatives that he took starting sometime in the 1950s through the 1960s. He used a Hasselblad early on, switching to 35mm at some point. All the B&W film seems to have been Tri-X Pan, but he also shot color and I can't figure out what type of Kodak film it is. I'm trying to get the settings right in SilverFast and I've been picking "Max" as it seems to be the nicest color, but I have really been interested in finding out what he used.
I've attached an example negative; it says "Kodak Safety Film" but no other indicators of what it is. I noticed the two dots on the left side but don't know if that's meant to be some sort of identifier, a result of processing, or what.
Sorry if this isn't the right forum; if there's one more suitable for this I'll move or recreate it.
