Tell me about this Fuji film stock


Recommended Posts

I think it is 1970s vintage, but am not sure. It is a clip from The Art of the 1960s film.

 

Did Fuji make movie stock that was comparable to Kodachrome? Most of the vintage color stock I see from the 60's and 70's has turned red. The Fuji looked pretty decent for color fade.

 

On another topic...too bad the film companies did not put 'Y' on the stock with a number after it to show the year of production. You can date Kodak stock, kinda, but still have to guess many times at the Kodak codes as one code spans a few decades.

Did Fuji make many different stocks for printing?

There's only one in my 1980 Samuelson's manual, 8814 Fujicolor Positive.

Most Kodak prints made before the early 80s when they came up with a low-fade stock have pinked.. It was the dominant material so examples of other print stocks are rarer. Your input may be quite useful.
