E-6 Process


The output is very good from your second try as well.

The color and depth is richer when project on screen compare with monitor disply.
 

Havent get to see that. Cant find 6x7 projector.

If you have a RB67 remove the film back, use 2 pc 1mm thick glass plate sandwich your slide, you can pro ject in this way. The cheap cheap way. ;)

Got RZ67, the same right? Use LED torch to beam through the front to the back of camera. 110mm lens boleh?

Will try your suggestion in Nov... now busy with a lot of things, haha :devil:

last time no led light, only photoflood light, 250 w with a big tdk fan for cooling, :bsmilie:
 

another test shoot and processing.

4 x 5 trim to 6x12cm

65mm super angulon. 40 or 50 years old. 1/4 sec f32 with polar.:)

E-6 experimental

Date: 16 Oct Sat
Time around 7.pm
location: my place.

If you brave enough, bring your film with you.
after mount and put in projector, with simple introduction between kodachrome and ektachrome.

pm me and I sms you the address
:)

Don't forget our chemical game today eve.
 

hope you guys will enjoy the session for some basic understanding with film dynamic range, scanning/camera colour bit depth, instant projection of the a bit wet slide and using the very sophisticated Biological sensor/probe with fussy logic cloud computing (512 bit microprocessor control system) and self error correction function (automatic PH value/Temp./Chemical Oxidation compensation) processor to process the slide.:)
 

Thanks a bunch for having us over!! it was great fun.. haha..
 

Great time of sharing from zk-diq.

Thanks, will need to arrange beer session with you since we live so near :)
 

Thanks alot for the session :D
First time seeing fresh processed slides on projector. The "XMM processing anyhow shake" is really funny!

Some scan from the processed film,

Not as good as project on screen, ;)

Yup, the slide projected ones are really detailed and good. Btw, just asking if there is anything specified to look out for in a slide projector?

The processed slide film has a max density of about D3.9 in the shadow area when measure few days back, and 0.2 in the highlight area, need "at least" 14 bit to represent most of the colour and tone, Just like the audio CD, once philips engineer says 14 bit is more then enough, now 24bit is almost a standard, and we are looking at 48 bit for closer to analog sound stage.;)
 

These are the Barang barang I use.

1st developer, Reversal bath, Colour developer, Pre Bleach, Bleach, Fixer, Total 6 parts, 5 Litre pack, all chemical store in 500ml bottle. Every 500 ml can process 5 to 10 rolls of 135-36.

I can keep for 2 to 4 month for the 1st developer and colour developer, the rest cap tight 6 months still ok.

For C41 process, just need to add developer will do, as the Bleach and fixer is same chemical.

Very sad that i missed your session. How do you maintain the temperature of the baths during processing ?

keep constant temp warm water in the tray.
 

I use Fuji Hunt, 6 bath chemistry, all liquid concentrates which I freeze until I need to make a batch of process chemical.

Here are a couple of examples of E-6 process of 110 slide film (I load my own cassettes with Velvia 100)

These images were produced from 13mm x 17mm transparencies. No post processing has been done on these images to remove grain or improve the image in any way.

These films were processed in a Jobo film processor. The tank shown can handle 8 x 16mm /110 films or 2 x35mm films or 4 x 120 films depending on which spirals are inserted. The water bath temperature is thermostatically controlled to + or minus 0.33ºC, maintaining close control over the process temperature and preheating the chemicals to the correct temperature. The drum runs just in contact with the water.

Jobo CPE 2 processor.

With different drums more films can be developed at the same time or a larger drum can be fitted to process prints up to 12" x 16"

and a short video of the unit in operation can be seen at http://s90.photobucket.com/albums/k273/watto02/Photo processing/?action=view&current=P8080001.mp4

This is real professional way of doing home processing.:)
freeze chemical is not recommended, but if it works, why not?;)
