Looks like He´s shooting with an orange 85B filter mounted on the camera lens...

Thanks !

I just bought a little bottle of Repolisan from Tetenal, which is intended to fill scratches in photo negatives.

The idea is to use it to restore some Super 8 films that I have and then transfer it to video.

Someone of you used this product or a similar?

I understood that it´s a kind of ...

Kodak offers that emulsion as a professional slide film like the other ones from the E-Family.

Elite Chrome family (according Kodak´s web site) is intended for non-professional users.

Fred, re. the 64T filtration: Most would recommend the 85B filter -- I found it too orange (Kodak wratten/gellatin). Even filming in open shade it looked much too warm. I'm waiting for a test with the internal 85 filter to return.

Of course it could have been a processing error, who knows? As for ...

I´ve just checking out Kodak´s web site and I found that Kodak offers only 3 professional slide films (excepting the new E- Family):

KODAK EKTACHROME Professional Infrared EIR Film
KODAK EKTACHROME 64 Professional Film (EPR)
KODAK EKTACHROME 400X Professional Film (EPL)


So what happened ...

I can recommend you the use of a Siemens 2000 16mm projector for telecine. These old projectors have a selector that allows to change the shutter blades from 3to 2. That allows to transfer film to video in real time to 16.66 fps or 25 fps.

There is a version (like mine) that can reproduce magnetic ...

If they don´t want video cameras inside, then they shouldn´t want digital photo cameras and cell phones that can takes video.

That´s reminds me (by opposition) The Beatles´s first concert in Washington. You can see kids filming and taping the performance freely. Those where the days...

I was filming a wedding last week in super 8 but using Kodak Tri-X. Just waiting for the rolls from the lab.

What kind of light source did you used with EKTA 64T indoors? And how many watts?

Hi Muckymuck,
Check out the info sheets at filmotec.de (ORWO) and do a cross ref with Kahl's site, makes for interesting reading...you could of course just ask the guy directly.....

Nah, Kahl´s guys are very discreets when you ask for information about their filmstocks. They only says ...

Has anyone tried any of them? There's a 10 ISO black and white reversal, plus 100 and 400 ISO black and white negatives plus a 200 ISO black and white reversal which is probably Tri-X.


I tried these filmstocks and I really love them!!

Orwo UN 54 ISO 64/100 is a very fine grain stock and Orwo ...

I have passed E64T carts in several airports and there was no problems. Most of of the X-ray scaners in airports do not affect films with less sensitivity than ISO 1600.

Good Luck!

What I don't understand is why they came up with a non T-grain 64T in the first place particularly since I heard it from a Kodak engineer herself that they didn't want to produce a super-8 stock that wasn't going to be available in 16mm and 35mm as well. So they invented a stock that's useless ...

And what´s up with Agfachrome films?

Pretty good news!

If there´s no magenta coloration on the film and the grain is very fine, then that film could be Agfachrome 50 RSX II. As far as I know, RMS granularity of this film stock is 10 instead 11 of Ekt 64T.
