Anthony Schilling Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 100D, 200T and 64T... D is for daylight balanced, T is for tungston balanced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Hughes Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 It's shorthand for how much money you need to spend to get a decent telecine from this stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Means Posted October 7, 2006 Author Share Posted October 7, 2006 So, with Kodak only making 64K (by the way, what's the K stand for- Ektachrome?), Tri-x, Plus-x, 200T, and 500T, who's making 100D? I know pro8mm and a few other folks *sell* it, but who manufactures it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_Alderslade Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 (edited) So, with Kodak only making 64K (by the way, what's the K stand for- Ektachrome?), Tri-x, Plus-x, 200T, and 500T, who's making 100D? I know pro8mm and a few other folks *sell* it, but who manufactures it? Its actually 64T - there's no such thing as 64K - and again the 'T' is for Tungsten - meaning its balanced for tungsten or balanced close to artificial light. Tri-x, Plus-x - I belive though could mistaken are simply their names. 100D Negative or 100D Ektachrome? The 100D Ektachrome is manufactured by kodak for 16mm and 35mm and mabye someday for super 8. It's shorthand for how much money you need to spend to get a decent telecine from this stock. :blink: Edited October 7, 2006 by Andy_Alderslade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Lemson Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 ...but who manufactures it? I've only found 100D under the name Cine Chrome in double 8 form. There's no indication on the film can who makes it. I'll see if I can find out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacob thomas Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 Perhaps you are confusing E64T with K40T (Ektachrome 64 Tungsten and Kodachrome 40 Tungsten). E64T, 100D, and V2 200T are all Kodak stocks although 100D is only available reperfed to Super 8, Kodak is apparently thinking about perfing and carting it themselves (hopefully soon). E64T and 100D might be cheaper to telecine because they are reversal films and could more easily be handled by a workprinter or other cheaper method (like filming off the wall).
