Default fuji 3e6 questions

aloha,

i've a kit of 3 bath from fuji 3e6 and of course, some qustions...

i want to develop E6 agfa RSX II (100iso) pro slides, but what times ? i suposse
is the same time for *all* E6 slides, but is this exact ?

another...
for agfa slides i need to add sodium hydroxide or sulphuric acid in colour
developer for colour balance ?

another...
live of baths after mixing chemi. are very short... someone freeze the chemicals
for more long live ? results ? in cool ambients "something" is precipited at
bottom of bottles and result in a unusual bath ?

another...
someone develop Scala with this kit ?

no info in fujihunt.com :-(

TIA

Yes, all E-6 films should develop for the same time and temp. Otherwise
commercial developers would need separate setups for each brand/type of
film.

Not sure where you got that info, pH adjustment is usually used only in big
labs for replenished processors. As above if the developing kit is
correctly formulated and the film is E-6 standard no tweaking of pH is
required for any brand of film.

Mix just what you need and process "one shot". Concentrates last quite a
while. If you aren't using the kits up before expiration either buy smaller
kits or send your film out. Chemical waste really cuts into the economy of
processing your own film.

Nope, Scala is an off-beat, black and white reversal product not compatible
with E-6. Capable of fine results, but the process is proprietary and
nothing like E-6. Having said that, I'm sure someone, somewhere has managed
to process Scala in E-6 (but not without much modification of the process).

no info in fujihunt.com :-(


No, you'll never find recommendations beyond what the maker envisions as the
purpose of their produce.

from brochure inside produt, but note, kodak say something like this about ph of
**water** used for baths.
not all people have the same water

I understand this but I search a system for more long live of chemicals, freeze
is one. after all I test this metod the next time.
