Photo Forum / General Photo Topics / UK Photography / July 2006Cross Process Velvia?
I've been hearing about the color saturation that Velvia produces. Is the saturation still present if you were to process it as slide film? What are the results if you processed Velvia as slide film versus processing it as negative film? Velvia IS a slide film. > I've been hearing about the color saturation that Velvia produces.

But it uses, IIRC, the same processing as print film. The OP wants to know what'll happen if he uses slide processing (E6?). >> I've been hearing about the color saturation that Velvia produces.

SignatureJustin C, by the sea. Unfortunately, you don't recall corectly. Fuji's PDF on their site says E-6 or the fuji equivalent CR-56. If you cross process it in colour neg chemicals:- 1) you probably won't get an orange mask as there isn't a layer that has that function. 2) It'll probably be a lot less saturated as coulour neg is meant to be lower contrast so the developer is softer working. Not a lot of point really. > > Velvia IS a slide film. > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > Justin. Hugh Spence schrieb: > Unfortunately, you don't recall corectly.

Ok, this is slide-film (E-6) processed in E-6 (same as CR-56): http://www.gugau-foto.de/details.php?image_id=505 and this is how it looks when the film was processed in C-41 chemicals: http://www.gugau-foto.de/details.php?image_id=506 And if you want to take the C-41-processed film as a negative and see how a positive would look like please download it, open in Photoshop and press 'crtl + i'.

The OP wants to >know what'll happen if he uses slide processing (E6?). You do not recall correctly! Velvia is a reversal film that uses the standard E6 chemistry. Cross processing would mean developing it in C41 chemicals. |
