For any Canadians out there, who has shot the Shoppers Drug Mart brand "easypix" film? I see they have a bunch for not a lot of money. Is it some other rebranded type? fake edit: some people seem to think it's just rebranded Fuji Superia BANME.sh fucked around with this message at 17:16 on May 16, 2014 |

I shot some a year or two ago. Pretty sure it said "FUJI" near the sproket holes when I had it developed. Basic, consumer-grade C-41 film, as I recall.

Yond Cassius posted:VS - "Very Saturated". Kodak's answer to Velvia, and in some ways I think a superior film. VS slides look like jewels. Yeah, VS renders red and yellows beautifully without leaving greens sickly like Velvia does in bright sunlight. It definitely has a warmer glow to it. Velvia really shines in overcast conditions which is a bummer that Fuji dropped the 100 speed before the 50. burzum karaoke fucked around with this message at 22:38 on May 18, 2014 |

Ezekiel_980 posted:The E100G flavor, also was 20 not 40 rolls, mashed wrong key this morning. EPR - The original Ektachrome 64, from the mid-70s. It's a decent neutral film, but not really worth shooting even if you find it around. EPN - Ektachrome 100. Much the same rendering characteristics as EPR, except faster. EPP - Ektachrome Plus. Moderate-high saturation, from the late 80s. It's a cousin to Astia, but Astia is the cousin who was just... better at everything. S - "Saturated". Second-to-last generation. SW - "Saturated Warm". Second-to-last generation. One of my all-time favorites. G - The last-generation improvement on the S emulsion, introduced in 2002/2003. It represents the very best of Kodak's slide-film technology, and I think it's the best all-around Ektachrome, possibly the best all-around slide film ever. Excellent skin tones. GX - Supposedly the G-series version of SW, but it never really worked for me. I thought it was rather orangey, and wasn't as good with skin tones as SW. VS - "Very Saturated". Kodak's answer to Velvia, and in some ways I think a superior film. VS slides look like jewels.

Ezekiel_980 posted:I like to look of that red, is $80 for a 5 pack a rip off? Yes. Mel Pierce has a little left for $13/roll, or $65/5pack. $13/roll is still high, personally, but that's the nature of the game. Is it $5/roll better than Velvia 100? They're not making more of it, and if it really speaks to you, the fair price is what you can find.

I got a cheap Minolta Hi-Matic AF2 rangefinder and it came with a roll of Safeway film expired in 2003. It looks identical to other Fuji stuff I've had developed in the past.

Word. I was wondering about this earlier actually. I'm gonna be moving out of my apartment/address at the end of the month. I'm mildly concerned it won't show up and poo poo. In the event you haven't sent my film I can pm you a temp address where it can be received for beautiful pitcher takin'. Edit: if t'were sent out already, t'should arrive before I relocate.

I could drive to you and deliver it in person in a day (though I'd want to crash somewhere before driving back), so it should be there in plenty of time.

It's just a padded envelope, though, so I would expect him just to stuff it in your mailbox. Including some off-board friends there are 16 people and 25 rolls involved in this little game. I'm pretty sick of writing out my address by now.

Hey guys sorry for my film noobism but I had developed some color film from walgreens and I subsequently lost the negatives myself(I would never have given my film away unless they returned the negs). I'm just curious how the following image looks  untitled-2.jpg by Denim Pants, on Flickrvs the original lovely walgreens scan:  edit: oh it was 35mm fuji superia 800 speed that expired like 10 years ago, shot 1 year ago. feigning interest fucked around with this message at 04:27 on May 26, 2014 |

Astia and Portra are both low contrast color films mostly used for portraits. That's what he means.

Totally. Portra pretty much implies portraiture...as long as you're pastey and pink-ish. What little I've seen if Astia looks similar to portra, with slightly more saturated colors. In my dream(s) would it look like kodachrome with less intense reds.
