The new boxes say "NEW" and "Finest-grained consumer slide film" or words to that effect. The new Elite Chrome 100 resembles Kodak Professional E100G; the older one, E100S. |

it. Thanks- Jim "Michael A. Covington" wrote in message ... "Jim" wrote in message ... Greetings- Has anyone tried pushing Elite chrome 100 to 400? Jim No, but it works very well pushed to 200.

pushing elite chrome 100
Thanks for the humorous and obvious question, Mike. Here's the deal: I
have an F100 and Fm3a and rarely play with the iso setting as they have DX capability. I wanted to try my 'new" FE2 out (does not have DX ability) and after finishing a roll of Provia 400F, slapped in the Ektachrome 100. Whoops forgot to change iso setting.

You should be fine with a two stop push with that film. It would work slightly better if you had done about +1/3 extra exposure, but should be okay. If your lab does 1/10 or 1/3 stops push increments, you could ask for 2 1/5, or 2 1/3 push, and the results might be slightly better. I have used E100VS this way, though I realize that your Elite Chrome 100 is slightly different. Usually, one stop is no problem, but going further often requires some extra exposure. The best push results of any film I have used so far has been from E200, and even that is not linear in response. Ciao! Gordon Moat Alliance Graphique Studio http://www.allgstudio.com |

OK, have it processed with a 2-stop push and it won't be bad. It will probably be grainier than Elite Chrome 200, and it will have rather harsh contrast, but you'll have pictures. -- Clear skies, Michael Covington -- www.covingtoninnovations.com Author, Astrophotography for the Amateur and (new) How to Use a Computerized Telescope |
