Advertisement Posted November 25, 2019 Posted November 25, 2019 Hi frame-it, Take a look here Ektachrome 64T. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
wizard Posted November 25, 2019 Share #2 Posted November 25, 2019 I have used that film in the past, but have no images available at this point. It is the tungsten variation of the typical Kodak Ektachrome slide film of yesteryear, which means it will give reasonably correct colors only in situations with predominantly artificial (tungsten) light. In daylight use, colors will be completely off, but there was a correction filter available to also allow using this film under daylight conditions, if needed. Cheers, Andy 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
adan Posted December 3, 2019 Share #3 Posted December 3, 2019 Basically, this film has adjusted chemistry to make it less sensitive to red and green (= yellow) light than regular Ektachrome 100 (thus the lower ISO of 64). Effectively (but not literally) this film has a built-in blueish 80A filter. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/54501-REG/Tiffen_5280A_52mm_80A_Color_Conversion.html It is thus "pre-white-balanced" to remove yellow from pictures shot specifically under studio tungsten floodlights (3200°K white balance) - and produce "normal" colors under that yellowish light. (NB: 3200°K is the standard color-temp for motion picture and studio-still floodlights. It is less yellow than low-wattage room lights, but substantially yellower than daylight or electronic flash) Shot under that intended light, it will (or should) look exactly like Ektachrome 100 shot with electronic flash, or under sunlight. It will not work perfectly with lower-wattage (<150W) artificial light, which is still too yellow (and with today's LED light bulbs, Bog knows what the color will look like!) Shot under daylight (5500-6000°K) the pictures will be very blue. Some people use it that way for the moody blue-dusk coloring even at high noon. An 85B Wratten filter will "add back" the yellow-orange color to produce correct color under sunlight - but at that point, one is better off just using the daylight-balanced E100 in the first place. Like wizard, I haven't shot it in decades. Here's a shot made with EPY about 1983, under medium-high-wattage (150w) indoor tungsten room lights (not Leica - Nikon F + 28mm f/2 Nikkor-N) Welcome, dear visitor!

tommonego@gmail.com Posted December 8, 2019 Share #4 Posted December 8, 2019 Used it commercially with tungsten lights until I went to digital. Wonderful film for tungsten, best grain structure of any of the Ektachromes was awful under daylight with an 85B. Below is a commercial photo of a medical instrument, not a Leica photo, 4x5 Cambo, Linhof 2 1/4 x 2 3/4 back 120 Apo ED Nikkor. It was used a a 3x6 ft poster. Welcome, dear visitor!
