SWS Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 (edited) I posted elsewhere in the forums about some 16mm film from the 1960s I'm going to have scanned. We keep going back and forth trying to determine whether they are reversal stock or print. I did not shoot this film, it was rescued from the trash heap around 1983. Both are color, double perf. The one we think is from 1965 is marked KODACHROME A and has a very easily identifiable base & emulsion side. In the supplied image, it is base side up. The one we think is from 1968 is marked EASTMAN SAFETY FILM looks like base on both sides, with the edge coding is plain as day. It's been so many years since I've shot or handled 16mm, I just can't remember what to look for :/ Images attached! :) Edited May 1, 2016 by SWS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirk DeJonghe Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 The middle one is Ektachrome reversal, it has edgenumbers. I don't think Kodachrome ever had edgenumbers, maybe the Kodachrome Commercial but that was before my time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "bottom" one is actually just another photo of the "middle" one so that all the edge info was visible :) :) Edited May 1, 2016 by SWS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
