Hi there. Thanks for the video. I have been trying to bulk load kodak vision but I couldn't figure out how to load it in the bulkloader. Could you tell me how or where to get that thing to load it into 100 feet? Thanks.
Kodka Eastman also sells Ektachrome 100D 35mm in 400 and 1,000 ft rolls. Since you already have the equipment to break down the large rolls... just saying
Amazing resource, thanks for this. I saw you were shooting with the Voigtlander Nikton 58mm f/1.4 and the photos looks great. I was wondering if you had any other Voigtlander F Mount Nikon lenses... and maybe consider doing a future video if you do? Would be cool to hear you thoughts. Cheers.
@@SprocketHoles It does not make a deference feeding the film. A lot of people try to deed it with the door open or with the door closed but no stick inside. That means the gate is closed.
Ive always wondered if it would be possible to remove the remjet at home in a tank, then allowing the film to dry before loading it into the canister. Diy cinestill and it could probably then be sent out to a lab to cross process in c41
In theory yes, but it would be very hard. you would need some kind of light tight machine to remove it then dry and spool it. The money would be spent on developing it yourself.
This is awesome. Love that nokton 58. I have the 40mm for my old eos 35mm slr, always wanted the 58 too. Did you overexpose the film in body or were the shots done at 250? Thanks
Awesome video ! What kind of shelf life do you get from the Fuji chemistry once you open it ? Do you mix the 5L right away and store it in its mixed form, or keep it in it's concentrate form for as long as possible and only mix as you go ? (and in that case, do you use it as a one-shot developer ?)
I mix all the developer and store it in 2L plastic bottles that used to have fizzy water in them. (well washed). I fill the bottles to the brim and tightly close them. I have had developer last over a year like this.
@@SprocketHoles This works. You can also divide the concentrates in well sealed, small glass bottles with airtight caps bought from a shop selling lab equipment, filled with inert gas. It will keep very long this way -- probably even longer than the concentrates in original HDPE bottles. Don´t use beverage bottles for chemistry, as somebody is going to drink from these - sooner or later.
If scanning and digital image is what you want, ECN-2 film is an option. However, it is not really compatible for printing in darkroom to RA-4 papers. But provided it is developed in proper ECN-2, it is easy to scan and edit digitally. This is how the movies shot on film are made these days. If cross processed in C-41, it produces very dense negatives with color shifts, but these can often be corrected in digital post production. You can´t print these manually, unless you want to see a magenta pavement and a green sky in the same picture.
I don't get the point of making a 400 to 100 foot machine when you could instead just use almost the exact same design to make a 400 foot to cassette directly machine, and be done.
Been wanting to try this. Thanks for this!
I purchased a 400’ loader because it saves time and I short 250D/500t/5222/ 98% of the time.
Which one are you using?
@@NonExistChannel rezivot
Where can I find one??

I tried to get some but it's not available at the moment.

The 40mm f2 and the new 55mm f1.2 are on the list.
If you have the winder stick inside while loading the film in the bulk loader it is a lot easier the loader opens and the film goes very easy… 2:08
I had the gate open for the film but I think the issue was the motion picture sprocket holes.

I use kodak vision 250D all the time and DAMN, those are some PRISTINE results. How did you do it? 😂 Amazing images!
Where did you bought the vision 3 100 ft?

@@SprocketHoles yeah if one had a darkroom it could be possible. Just ideas.
Nice video. what do you do with the remaining 300' of film? Just tape it, and put back to the tin?
This is awesome. Love that nokton 58. I have the 40mm for my old eos 35mm slr, always wanted the 58 too. Did you overexpose the film in body or were the shots done at 250? Thanks
I shot it at 200 iso. I generally shot color neg film at 1/3-2/3 of a stop over

@@SprocketHoles Thanks for your reply. I actually am storing my fixer in a 1L Perrier bottle at the moment ! 😅

Is there somewhere in Ireland that stocks vision 3 film or where did you source it?
I got it from frame24.co.uk and paid the import charge.
What sort of cloth or wipe did you use when washing off the last bits of remjet?
I used a microfibre cloth wetted with photoflow. I would also add a rinse after this to remove any fibres from the film.
Curious where did you get that spooler to make those 100ft roll
it was 3d printed. I had a friend print it for me. You can find it on thingyverse.
Bravo, very smart idea - for sure not for beginners.
It is more advanced and for those that are far down the rabbit hole.
You can make ECN2 yourself. And it is very cheap. The formula is in the Kodak document.
100% did not know Irish trains went that fast
Only for a few places they can hit 160kph.

yes but I'm lazy
@@SprocketHoles Right, that's why I'm suggesting how to have fewer steps which is of benefit to lazy people :)
@@gavinjenkins899 I can out lazy that, I have a friend that did the 3D printing for me. :)
