Motion Picture Film Used As Stills. Post Results Here.

Correct - we have decent access to pre-packaged items, but poor access to raw chemicals.
And those of us in the Vancouver area are much better off than people in the middle of the country.

As much as I try to see "the merits of driveway cleaner vs the raw ingredients of driveway cleaner" being a captivating conversation I don't think it will provide anyone any sort of opinion of what motion picture film will look like when used for still photography.

In an attempt to steer this thread back to its intended subject here is an RA-4 darkroom print from Vision3 500T film that was cross processed in C-41 chemistry and *gasp* driveway cleaner. It was shot in dim daylight with a Leica and a 50mm summicron, 1/60 ƒ/2.0 I believe.

That's quite well done

Like!
I am encouraged that you got that result in an RA4 darkroom print from *gasp* C41! I like the colors and saturation. Did you do anything special? Standard developing times for film and paper? Fuji Crystal Archive? Nice one!

Thanks! I detail my development for Vision3 in this post earlier in this thread - https://www.photrio.com/forum/threa...-stills-post-results-here.195291/post-2700936

RA-4 print is standard 2m dev and 2m blix at room temp. Paper is Fuji Crystal Archive II glossy. The 8x10 was scanned with an epson flatbed and then adjusted in capture one so that the scans from the epson match a scanned color checker. Basically the print on the computer screen matches the print in hand well enough. No digital trickery or anything like that. Adding an iPhone shot of the print on the board in the darkroom for context.

Well done!!

I suspect this is the reason why it's commonly sold in pellet form here.

The biggest advantage to pellets vs. flakes is there's somewhat less tendency for the particles to weld together -- which can make the material hazardous to use (instruction on the Red Devil cans used to say to discard the can -- via the Federally prescribed method -- if this occurred).

I'm going to beg for a thread revival here.

I was looking at something from Reflx Lab and suddenly found myself down the rabbit hole of their respooled Kodak Vision 3 films, particulary 500T. Most of the photos I have come across taken with this stock are outdoor/daylight photos. I would love to see more examples of this film used indoors in tungsten-ish lighting.

Also for anyone thats interested for sending their ECN-2 film out to get developed in ECN-2 chemicals, a lab called Midwest Film Co does developing for $8 bucks:

Nothing in this thread that has those?

Surprisingly few. I went through the whole thread at work (while avoiding work).

These two are indoors by 500T:

Murals to the tunnel - UKUS_500T_004 by Zheng, on Flickr

There are more on my flickr stream if you search for 500t.

This is the way.

Haven't see much Vision3 200T in this thread-but I like it the best of all of them. I am currently shooting some Vision2 200T right now.

This is 200T with an 85C filter, I think the 85 and 85B are too orange.

Same roll of film at night, no filter.

Same roll of film, no filter, during an overcast day.

All of these shots were developed in an automatic C41 color film processor with a remjet pre-removal wash.
