Fuji 400T and bleach bypass

[Wendell Philippe]

Hey everyone!

Has anyone here had the chance to use bleach bypass with the Fuji 400T stock?

And if so, what were the results like and by how much stops did you undexposed?

Thanks

I shot a short film in 35mm anamorphic with Fuji F-400T doing a skip-bleach. I rated it at 500 ASA, which was not enough underexposure -- I had some blown-out whites and burned out skies. I probably should have rated it at 800 ASA.

 

It looked good: pastel, contrasty, like you'd expect, but probably not quite as harsh as would happen if I had used a normal contrast film stock.

Remember, I'm only talking about underexposing if you are doing the skip bleach to the NEGATIVE, not the print.

and how does the grain texture react with the bleach bypass in this fuji stock ?

does it become more apparent or not so pronounced ? does the process make the look grittier, even on this pastel stock ? i would like to know difference in texture between this stock and kodak vision 320T with the same process.
