Hello, my colleague and I are working on a lighting and film project. We plan to use a medium format still camera with 6x7 and 6x9 120 backs. What we need is Kodak 500T 70mm cinematic film converted into medium format (120) rolls. The remjet layer does NOT need to be removed, our lab can take care of that.
Is there anyone who can do this for us? We will need 100 rolls
Thanks ahead.
Wow! How did you get the 500T roll?! Also, i doubt this is available as 70mm roll, only 65mm. Cameras for 70mm cine use 65mm negative film. The prints are 70mm.
In my opinion, it would be easier to use Portra 800 (120 format) and use an 80C filter to color correct, so it behaves like tungsten film of about 400 ISO.
Considering the problems Kodak is currently having with wrapper offset and 120 backing paper, I would be wary of using backing paper with film stock not designed for it.
I did not suggest to use a hot mirror filter.We've also been considering using daylight film and color correcting with a filter. Thanks for the hot mirror suggestion. A friend suggested using a blue gel filter https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/90467-REG/Rosco_101032032024_3203_3_4_Blue.html
Do you think that would work just as well, or are there advantages to a hot mirror filter?

They are making 120 rolls of 5219 sold as their '800T' film with the Remjet already removed.

An 80C (or B or A) is a filter designed specifically to convert from tungsten light to daylight. It is blue.
A hot mirror filter , filters out infrared.
i've purchased and shot kodak 5219/500T cut down from 65mm to 120 from sellers in the UK and in hong kong. as far as i know, both are no longer offering the film for sale as its very labor intensive to trim the film and spool it, and the demand just wasn't there. someone who you might consider contacting is dean bennici in germany. he's the guy who cuts down the aerochrome color infrared to 120 format. perhaps he'd cut and spool the film for you if you supplied it and made him a good offer for his labor?
The remjet is on the back of the film. The wrapper offset occurs when the numbers on the back of the paper contact the emulsion (front) of the next layer of the film and cause a reaction that shows up in those negatives.If the film retains its remjet I cannot see how the backing paper is going to have an offset effect.
Thank you, I have deleted my incorrect post.The remjet is on the back of the film. The wrapper offset occurs when the numbers on the back of the paper contact the emulsion (front) of the next layer of the film and cause a reaction that shows up in those negatives.
If you alread have the 70mm film, you could also look into a specific back for this kind of film - I am thinking specifically of the Hasselblad 70mm magazine.
You did state you were going to retain the remjet backing, this effect only occurs when that backing is removed before exposure. It is halation where light is reflected back through the emulsion from the rear surface of the base, or from anything behind the film, such as the pressure plate of the camera, and causing the effect around bright points.Regarding halos around red lights, does this happen with red light sources only? It does it occur with red specular reflections, or red colors in general, for example with a piece of red clothing? Thanks.

No problem, love it when an old thread has life breathed in it.Chris thanks for the clear reply.

As for the conversion, perhaps Lomography can do it? Or perhaps ADOX. Maybe Adox is your best bet.
