What is Kodak 200-8 film?
I have some negatives; I thought they were shot on Kodak Gold, but the
negatives say "Kodak 200-8", and it could be ColorPlus. Anyway, I'd like to find the best negative profile for VueScan; each profile gives wildly different results. Daniele |

It wouldn't have taken you very long. Daniele |

It wouldn't have taken you very long. If you had bothered to read the very first Google Search response you would have discovered that it is indeed ColorPlus film and that said film has a dodgy reputation. As such, serious people doing serious scanning have not used it or developed profiles for it and that is why you cannot find one. If you have a good reference scan, however, you should be able to develop settings that are adequate for a film that does not have high expectations in the first place. Or failing that, ask Tony "Bruce" Polson. He's expert in everything and likely took his Paris March cover photo with that very film. -- "C'mon boys, you're not laying pipe!". -John Keating. |

Also scan it as a positive and post that. I've found other references that make it = Kodak Gold 200. I used Kodak Gold 100 many times and it scanned well enough without using any particular profile other than "color negative" as default. (probably used the Minolta scanning s/w at the time and not VueScan). I do recall it casted blue or green a bit so you can just push it towards yellow or magenta as needed in post. -- "C'mon boys, you're not laying pipe!". -John Keating. |

At least I post photos - unlike some pompous airbags with nothing to show but 4 poorly badly exposed, soft, grainy choo choos and a very bad product shot. (Pathetic actually). Do you? Of film? Judging by all your interventions when the subject is film, you must have a total understanding, practical and recent, of the subject. Remarkably, you have NEVER produced any image remotely resembling film. So, by your own rules, you are pathetic. What can I say? |

Daniele Just use auto adjust and then use slight manual trimmingsd: it does the same as profiles, with a wider range. I doubt you won't be able to correct for any film that way. |
