2 self-processed films

[attenka]

I have developed old Moviechrome and Revuechrome films to black and white negative. After that I transfered them with Workprinter and inverted them straight with video camera to positive. They are not perfect, but I was very happy to see, that it works.

Do you think you can do the same with Kodachrome II?

I understand the "develop a negative" part. And I understand using the Work Printer to transfer. But how did you go from a negative to a positive?

Are you working on a Mac or a PC? What program did you use to do this?

I have some old K-II my family shot when i was a kid. I was going to send it to Rockey Mountain (in the USA) to be developed into a B&W negative. But if I could use my Workprinter to transfer to my computer, then do the transfer from negative to positive, i would rather do it myself.

How did you do it?

there are some ppl who processed kodachrome II (or k40) as b/w neg, however, i seem to remember that there are a few prolems.. from what i've heard:
- there is a speed loss, which means you should uverexpose the film
- you'll have o remove the anti-halo backing (also called rem-jet) which is quite a mess
- it will look rather muddy

nearl every decent editing system should be able to do this really... the command should be something like "invert"
in Final Cut Pro for example, you go to video filters -> channel -> invert

if yours cant, i'm sure there is a sharewareprog that will do it.

OK. Cool. I think i will have Rockey Mountain recover my K-II, then just mail me the negative and i will take it from there.

Thanks for your help.

Loved your video BTW!

You can do the reversion directly in your camera using the "negative" effect.

I use pc with wp but you can do it as well with mac. The capture program is Jeff Dodson's "Dodcap" done right for that purpose.

My WorkPrinter jr. arrived 2 days ago (Thanks Roger!!! I am too excited for words!) and i will be buying Jeff's program as soon as I get over the flu and can think (maybe a day or two). Glad to know Jeff's program will do this.
