Color film? I didn't know they even made color film 40 years ago.
Sorry, I forgot to put the irony indicator into my post: irony or ;-) But while I'm mentioning it, most color films of the 1950-60s (except Kodachrome of course) were much less archival than those of today. G- Blank axed: I once left an exposed roll of Supra 800 for just one year, and the images printed from it were totally unacceptable. You made the blanket statement. The next question is what did the negative look like? I have kept slide films up to a year with no adverse affects, it may depend on where one stores the film. The negatives were awful as well, judging by HP Photosmart scans. I'm telling ya, "Process Promptly" like it says on the box. |

You posted this separately (multi-posted) to at least two newsgroups. In the future, please either restrict your post to a single group or cross-post (put all group names, separated by commas, on the "Newsgroups" line). Multi-posting wastes bandwidth, makes the message appear multiple times in the newsreaders of people who read multiple groups to which the message is posted, and creates two separate discussion threads, which means people might respond needlessly or be unable to get the benefit from posts in an unread group. -- Rod Smith, http://www.rodsbooks.com Author of books on Linux, FreeBSD, and networking |

It was shot using technicolor which was a monochrome process. There films were shot simultaneously, one with a red, one with a green and one with a blue filter. They were combined in printing to give the normal color appearence. Listen up, smart ass - TECHNICOLOR is a COLOR process. They used three special monochrome films (2 panchromatic, 1 orthochromatic) to record the Red, Blue, and Green records, which were combined in printing to give a full color image. Note that there were only TWO filters, Magenta and Green, not three as you stated in your post (see technical diagrams at website below). The insulting tone of your post implies that "The Wizard of Oz" (note how I spelled that correctly) was not color, when in fact, it simply wasn't shot with monopack color film. Stop confusing folks with your semantic bull**** and drop the attitude. http://www.widescreenmuseum.com/oldc...chnicolor4.htm Color film was first produced as Kodachrome in 1935. I'm not sure when color negative film was first produced, but it was general use in the late '50s or early '60s. Geoff. Let's see if we can fill in some blanks here... According to "A Half Century of Color" by Louis Walton Sipley, 1951, Macmillan Co. ... Kodachrome first came out as 16mm motion picture film in 1935. In spring of 1936, it came out in 8mm movie film. In Aug. 1936, it was introduced in 35mm and 828 formats. Color film was produced MUCH earlier than Kodachrome, as the Lumiere brothers invented Autochrome film in 1903, and were selling it in 1907!!!! Go here to see what Autochromes look like: www.autochrome.com www.autochrome.org/ Color negative film was introduced in 1941-2 with Kodacolor (George Eastman House says 1941, Eastman Kodak says 1942 for this film).

Their color negative film didn't appear until 1939 - two years before Kodacolor. Derek |

oups.com... I hate to admit it, but I founds four rolls of exposed file with Process: SFW-SL on the canister. Where does a person send these to get them developed? I searched several photograph news groups but there is very little information that isn't over 6 years old. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Some advice that I find says the film is old movei film. Check with Dale Labs. They were one of the original Eastmancolor movie film processors back in the 70s. They list a toll free number on their web site at www.dalelabs.com. They're an excellent photofinisher and, if they handle your film type, you can be assured that they will give you good results. |
