Hey guys, this video was supposed to be done a month ago but I broke my big toe and was hobbled for a bit. I'm back now and I'm doing much better now. Before anyone asks the next video should be Harman Phoenix, I'll just be a little late to the party.

I swear.. every time you release a video, you find colors that didn't exist in the world before.

"Ignore the scanner artifacts" while showing an image that is just 100% scanner artifacts :D I've watched every video at least 3 times and they always crack me up

Properly stored frozen slide film ages slowly, i stil got a lot 1990s expired rolls of ektchrome 120 mostly in iso 100 and 200 in my freezer! So far i had very little problems and other then magenta shadows i am very happy with the results!

In my time, Expired Kodak Slide has always given me nothing, while expired Fujifilm Slide and Agfachrome will survive the tests of time. Let's see how Konica holds up

one of the best film channel for sure

Oh! What crazy timing, i just finished shooting a roll of this from the same year. Thanks for putting into words everything i couldn't express about it.

So with slide film, it's extremely important to get the first dev right. From your first roll I kind of assume that first dev ended up producing foggy negs. Foggy negatives yield semi-transparent film borders you see in that roll (compared to the very first E100 example shown), they also tend to blow out the highlights. Having base fog during chemical fogging and color dev will definitely yield color casts. You could try experimenting with adding anti-fogging agents (a bit of benzo, a bit of KI) to the first dev, decreasing the temperature and increasing the dev time to compensate (overexposing a bit would also be a good idea as these things kill the effective sensitivity). It should (in theory) allow to produce less of the base fog and less prominent color casts.

You can always bleach the bleach-bypassed film to remove metalic silver, and check what is in there.

Good to see your adventures again! Personally, I really like shooting expired negative and positive film.. probably because I stocked up on a huge amount of film, for literally pennies per roll, about 20 years ago, so I have tons to play with.

I am always looking forward to your videos. I love the picture of the cat in C41! This makes me want to dig out my roll of E400.

Brilliant as usual, and this episode in specific might save me a bunch of headaches in the future. Cheers! 🍻

Slides on a light table are my favorite thing ever

I’m also in PDX. I have so much expired film. Favorite to shoot is Kodak tri-x pan pro 120 expired 1980’s looks GREATT!

I got some 2000s expired Elitechrome 200, the first and only roll so far I tried produced fairly magenta heavy slides when developed as E6 by a pro lab (Fujifilm's Steenbergen facility in the Netherlands). The C41 cross process results here make me glad I can at least use it for alright color negatives, so I'll just use it as that, and spool the stuff up into things like Instamatic cartridges, or into 120 or 127 cameras

Uff, the magenta cast is an eternal torture, I've found that overexposing the slides often helps reduce its intensity!

Yes! Trichrome everything! Glad your doing better! Excited about the next video. If interested i have done or orwo film in my freezer.

Love your videos! I have a suggestion for a future video. Ilford Ortho Plus has almost no good information about push processing. Almost no one has done it and Ilford provides no guide to do it. I suspect it could be cool, especially where reds are involved, as the already dark reds would be even more contrasty. There is very little information about pushing orthochromatic film in general.

I had good results pushing those films during development.

Very cool! I have some old "Video Screen Duplicating" Ektachrome in the freezer, and I might give it a shot in C-41 after seeing this.

enjoyed the skeleton pic!

Where does the brown tint come from when developed in C41? I thought this was just added to c41 films to correct colours in printing. Never noticed that on your earlier cross processings. Or at least never stood out as something I don't understand. Awesome video as always, i like the experiments.

05:01 Rodinal activates some color dye, so when you do trichrome, use a different developer.

I don't know- a couple years ago I got reasonably decent results from a 1980 expired Ektachrome 400 processed in e6 (albeit it was a 120 roll)

I have 4 rolls of freezer stored P1600 that I've been waiting for a good day to shoot with. If E-6 doesn't justify it, maybe I'll have to try X process!

me back in high scool with a roll of EN 100

Yes

Votre vidéo est très bien faite, avec les couleurs (gamme) et vos prises de vues ensuite, en 6 X 6 du plus bel effet en diapositive.Vous montrez ensuite des planches contact en 35 mm, mais ici, les couleurs paraissent fanées,vos photos en extérieur sont très biens. Si vous développez votre diapositive comme un négatif couleur,vous aurez un négatif sans le filtre orange, et si vous allez à l'agrandisseur, il faudra sur filtrer en jaune.Un film négatif, développé comme une diapositive, vous aurez une diapo avec le filtre orange, et après tirage sur papier, vous aurez un négatif.Avant la fin de la vidéo, qu'est-ce que vous avez voulu dire avec la planche contact sans vraiment de couleurs et les dominantes sur les photos. On a l'impression d'avoir un bain de négatif qui n'aurait pas atteint la température réelle du révélateur.

are you developing them by yourself or sending to lab? also i wondered if its possible to trichrome by making multiple exposures on the same slide, shouldn't that affect only one specific layer with each filter? i wanna try that soon

Hi love your vids. I have got hold of a few boxes of very old 4x5 slide film and if they won’t look great as slides when you cross process them in C41 do you process them as normal C41 time and temperature? And also should I expose them based on their age like I would a c41 film Thanks

The c41 looks way better than E6 for expired slide film

Holy shit, C41 + Bleach Bypass ones look noisy as hell.

Speaking of expired slide film, do you by any chance have experience in developing old e-4 slide film? I came across two rolls of old infrared ektachrome film for 20 bucks expired in 1995, they might be completely toast but i want to at least try shooting it 🤔 Looking online it seems both e-6 and c41 can be used for this if you lower the temperature to 27C, but from this video im guessing that c41 will keep more of the color information. (Btw this channel is extremely informative, love your work)

Hi how did you fix the film developed in rodinal? And what fixer did you use, how much did you dilute and how long did you fix?

Are you going to try the new Harman Phoenix film?

The cross processed roll still look better than that Phoenix 200 thing 👀

What dev kit do you use for c41?

I was thinking if you're going to trichrome it, but then was like: Nah, it's already in color, why would he? And then you trichromed it anyways:D

I recently got 50 sheets of fridge stored e100 expired in 1989 and uhhh this doesn't inspire confidence? We'll see, maybe yours was stored badly.

The joy every time you post. 🫶
