I don't have a wet darkroom so no, no printing. I have done some quick scanning however. Everything has a green cast but with a little effort I should be able to get something at least usable.

This is a straight scan. Scanner set to auto expose and adjust. Please excuse the dirt and dust, I did nothing to prep this film prior to scanning.

That's fixable. There's a couple ways to do it, but specifics should probably be on dpug.

Bleach in the developer.

I would consider that but the other two rolls that were processed along with this one were fine. I'd expect all three to be effected.

Yeah, I think we've pushed the Apug limits a bit already...

Well, a streak along the length of the film indicates a solution quantity issue or an agitation issue or edge fog.

Along the width indicates a camera issue or a general lab fog problem.

This is a guess without seeing the entire roll and is opinion at this time.

Hi! I'm actualyl dealing with a similar issue. I have three rolls of portra 160 some of them look like this - what do you thin the issue could be? I scanned one of the rolls twice. The first set of scans are unedited straight from the scanner (aside from the psd file) and the second one I adjsuted things in the scanner software (ls-600 ez software) https://www.dropbox.com/sh/1n78eyolo6380we/AAD2jNc7CP4ggPP_5eRQ8qLNa?dl=0

it keeps saying my 999mb image is too big to share...

If you wish to download an image, comnvert it to something like jpeg and then resize it to no more than 1000 pixels on the longest side.

You asked this question about the same pictures in a separate thread, and some colleagues answered you, including me.
