    Re: Help with Slide Film

    If you are checking out slide films, I would like to suggest Kodak 100G to you

    Grain is tight (RMS = 8) and the colors are warmer than Fuji, which makes it a wonderful film for capturing skin tones. Fuji is a nice film, but I find that it never captures skin tones nearly as well as Kodak.

    Oh yeah...100G is cheap too.

    Freygr, how do you process E6 at home? Perhaps you can teach people like myself who still use film o.o

    I have not done any film processing for a long time (20+ years). You buy the chemical kit, the kit is good for so many days after you mix it, and good for X amount of film. To use it you get all the solutions up to temp, (use a water bath). From here out its timing and agitating, maintaning the temp. and being consistent. I have a lot of slides which I developed. (and I'm very slowly scanning )
