35mm vs 16mm grain structure


Recommended Posts

Are Kodak Vision3 16mm and 35mm stocks the exact same film / formula, only 16mm is a sliced up version of 35mm? ..and if they are the same stocks, is the bigger grain on 16mm due to greater magnification during scanning, optical blow up?

The emulsions are the same, but 16mm isn't "sliced up" 35mm. Stocks are cut to width from a 54" wide master roll and perforated later.

The whole of a given master roll would be slit into the same format and if you order a complete master roll Kodak will slit, perforate and package it into any available format you choose.
