    That's very weird. I've shot quite a bit of various expired slides, mostly developed in c41 and it was never that bad. From my experience EPP is all around nice when cross processed.

      I actually know Adam from Discord, and this film is sold by FPP as garbage dummy rolls meant to use as practice to get used to loading dev tanks and cameras. It was stored atrociously, and iirc they got literal pallets of it for free because they took up space. He literally has 500+ rolls of it because he got a good bulk price, and bought them in impulse, lol.

    It's a interesting gamble with expired slides!
    I was lucky to get freezer stored since day one Ektachrome 120 rolls in various speeds and in 9/10 times the slides look like shot at stock speed fresh slide film if you don't think about the magenta shadows, but the a quick moment in a photo editing software gets your shadows back less magenta!

    This reminds me of when i shot some orwo ut18, it's slide film but it wasn't designed for e-6, so you develop it with black and white and c-41 chemicals (sometimes refered to as "doble-cross").
    To cut a long story short, i shot it at ISO 3 and got usable images with a huge green cast over it, but nothing photoshop could't fix. Honestly, i was surprised that i even got any color.

  • @boondoc001
    @boondoc001 Рік тому

    Thank you for this video. I have shot a bunch of really old ektachrome, (80's & 90's expiration), and it's been hit and miss, mostly misses the older it is. I get the same results you did and that's also developing "newer" expired film in the same tank. So I would have one roll that looks completely transparent and another roll looks as it should. However there's a caveat, I found that Fuji's slide film actually holds up much better than Kodak's slide film and I can prove it. As a matter of fact, just in general it seems Fuji's expired c41 film produces better pictures than Kodak's expired c41 film. But on the topic of this video, literally last week I thought about cross processing old slide film in the c41 chems and this video just confirmed that I should do it. Thank you again.

    I must say I’m kinda suprised with the results you got. I myself have had really good results with expired slide film so far. Had three rolls of Sensia 100 expired in 2004 shot and developed at box speed that turned out great. Shot another roll from ‘06 that was stored in my father’s desk that came out very thin and completely blue, not suprising since it was stored way too hot. Also shot a 120 roll of Ektachrome expired in 1983 that I shot and developed at box speed, apart from some increased grain and warmth everything looked great as well.

    Expired slide film is my favorite! I shot some 1994 expired Ektachrome 400HC about a week ago and developed it with Tmax dev 1+10 for 15 min, fresh C41 for 6 min, and blix for 10 min, all constant agitation. Results looked almost perfect (minus a blue cast)!

  • @GlaciaDay
    @GlaciaDay Рік тому +4

    Fujifilm’s slide films are way stabler than Ektachrome or Elitechrome. I shoot most of my expired Astia, Fortia, Velvia and Provia at box speed and 90% of time get a nice image out of it. Some of them are expired 20 years ago. Meanwhile shooting expired Ektachome is a different story, I found E100VS, E100GX may grant a better result than regular Ekatchrome but it might just be a coincidence.

    • @iNerdier

      @@iNerdierFuji slides definitely hold time better than Ektachrome. I have shot some expired Agfa RSXII as well, and they suffer the same kind of blue-ish hazy color cast as expired Ektachrome if developed in E-6. Developing in C-41 might solve the problemI I guess.

  • @electroncraz91
    @electroncraz91 Рік тому +2

    I get decent results with exposing Provia 2 stops hotter than box, then HC110(1:8) for 8-15min, stop wash, expose to light (usually tungsten or near natural light, but not in sun, basically whatever the film's color temperature is), throw into RA4 chemistry, you can even dev it in RA4 in the light... would not recommend C-41 for E6, get RA4 which uses CD4, the colors work great you will be very surprised... nice vid! :)

    I found that 3m slide film holds up the best in comparison to other slide film stored in the same (good or bad) conditions. I also have a feeling that E6 slide film ages much worse in comparison to slide film that requires other processing methodes like E2, E4, Orwo and Agfa processes. But that might be just me.

    hmm this is so inspired to me, i love slide film, black and white and color, last time i try just shoot a negative on adox cms ii and develop in normal rodinal, i have some "slide" shoots but with less contrast, so i use green and blue filter to find better results, almost and right now i ant to try your technic for color, i mostly use vision beccause i don't have to much money for shooting so if i use ecn-2 this will work? i mean maybe i can use some old slide rolls [or just try negative to have worst result for creative photography DX] and rodinal and ecn-2 develop and bleach and fix this will ork enough? jesus i want spent all my time in darkroom DX
