daniel mahlknecht Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 I developed a jear ago a double8mm film, that a friend of mine had found in his fathers old camera. What I got was a totally black fil, but against strong light I could see that there there where pictures on it, but no chance to project or even scan them. now a a month ago I found the film again, and instead of throwing it away, I put it for abouth 2weeks in a fixingbath, and in the end it really became translucent, and I could telecine it. On the film was my friend at the age of abouth 12 jears, and now he has 47 jears! (i had developed it wizth ordinary b&w foto neg developer, and got therefore a b&w neg, I don't know what te material originally was) maybe someone is interested in things like this :) daniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olex Kalynychenko Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 I developed a jear ago a double8mm film, that a friend of mine had found in his fathers old camera........

(i had developed it wizth ordinary b&w foto neg developer, and got therefore a b&w neg, I don't know what te material originally was) I congratulate you. I processing old film too, This was B&W reversal and color reversal films, shooted at 1985...1990 ( maybe ). I use double time of processing and have a some result. B&W reversal film had better result from color reversal. You told about 2 weeks in a fixing bath. You can tell detailed. You use this bath with processed film or inside processing of film ? Yes, the fixing bath can clarify a some pictures on film. I do this after make of first B&W develiping, clean. But, this must be fast bath, 10..20 sec only. A bout your second films, this is fantastic. I think, this was B&W negative film, because, B&W reversal film must be full dark after negative processing.

It sure was reversal film, color or b&w I can't tell. daniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
