Anyone ever use this stuff back in the day? I just got a ton of rolls
and want to play with it. Can anyone bring me up to speed on this
film? I've Googled but haven't found much. I'm primarily curious as
to whats ON/IN it- such as the gooey remjet on the K-14 KP40.

Thanks!

It's just regular E6 Process -- I have about 5 rolls left -- I used to buy
it by the brick since the filtration would change and you would have to
"retitrate" every roll -- I start with the recommended filter pack and ring
around an entire roll using a Fuji step wedge slide, send it out and decide
which looks best.

The "SO" films were originally special order. SO-366 was balanced for
daylight or electronic flash while Kodak's standard dupe film at that time
was balance for tungsten light and the long roll "Sickles" type duplicator.
It was lower in contrast than an in-camera type film and pretty easy to use.
As I recall they made another "SO" optimized for Kodachrome dupes at one
time.

Whats the EI on this stuff?

I'm going to do a reversal on this and do some chemistry fun with it
in the darkroom.

Also I've come across a hundred rolls of Kodak P1600. time for more
fun. I know enough about it, I found a datasheet on it but still
unsure the exposure latitude if anyone knows..

Pretty slow, not a problem when used for it's intended use, but start at
around EI 2 to EI 25 for your first test roll and bracket.
