Pablo Cruz Villalba Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Hello everyone, I have a couple of questions regarding the ECP-2B process. What does the B in ECP-2B means? Can I develop the film in C-41 process? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo Cruz Villalba Posted January 11 Author Share Posted January 11 Or maybe RA-4? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Sponsor Robert Houllahan Posted January 11 Site Sponsor Share Posted January 11 We have successfully developed ECP in ECN-2 so it might work in C41 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo Cruz Villalba Posted January 12 Author Share Posted January 12 Thanks Robert. I'm shooting a Fuji Positive print stock roll tomorrow and I hope I can develop this week or next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Charles MacDonald Posted January 12 Premium Member Share Posted January 12 deep in the Kodak web site are the current processing manuals. https://www.kodak.com/en/motion/page/processing-manuals which will expain all the various versions of the Kodak Prcesses. which may or may not help you to understand what happens in teh lab. If Robert says he made it work, I would belive him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Process chemistry ECN-2 and ECP are the same stop fix and bleach only the developer chemistry is different, ECP works it just requires different printer light trims when making a print. I would guess that C41 might need more development time and ECN2 for running ECP but that is just a guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludwig Hagelstein Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Essentially ECP is CN stock as well. Yes, you will get a negative. Give it a stop of push. The only real difference between ECN-2 and ECP 2E is the developer activity (simplified) which is a lot higher (using CD2) than that of ECN-2 to yield high DMax in ECP film.

Pablo Cruz Villalba Posted January 18 Author Share Posted January 18 Thanks Ludwig. I developed in c41 and I think I can use the film at ASA 6. I didn't push. Next time I will do it. 4 minutes is too much? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
