Default Cross processing E-6 to C-41?


Hi,
I've got some rolls of out of date slide film that I'd like to
try cross processing. If I understand right over expose by two stops. The
question is the printing. Do I just go for pleasing colour? The negatives
won't have the orange mask. How much of an issue will that be?

Thanks
Nick

What you get is a very unpredicable result "in general"
the crossprocessed film will very somewhat in color balance.

I would think a grey card shot may help you get your bearings.

Use a grey card exposure to get bearings as suggested I use a piece of
unexposed and developed Kodak internegative film as a filter (makes it
easier to find a reasonable filter setting) don't exspect "normal colors"
even though you should be able to come pretty close.
