35mm Color Film - Kodak Vision 5242 (Experimental - Please Read)
Kodak Vision 5242 "Expired - EXPERIMENTAL - Double Exposed" ** 35mm Film
ISO 1 / Non-DX Coded / 1 Roll / 24 exposures / Process: ECN-2*
*NOTICE: This motion picture film CAN NOT be processed by any standard commercial lab!
** It has come to our attention that some images developed from this batch are double exposed! This was a surprise to us since we rolled the film from a sealed can. How did this happen? Our best guess is that the film was opened, exposed and then re-sealed but never developed! Not every roll will have this issue so we are selling this film to you as "expired, experimental".
Process at home using the FPP ECN-2 Kit

Why can't I process this film at my favorite C-41 lab? - Kodak's color motion picture films have an additional layer (on the shiny, not the emulsion side) called a "Rem Jet". Although technically this film can be processed C-41, this Rem Jet will foul commercial lab's equipment and there for can not be commercially processed. DO NOT BRING THIS FILM to a commercial lab or think you can "slip it through" - it will severely mess up their machines!
What commercial lab will process my negs, scan and or print for me? - See links above.
How do I meter for ISO 1 Film?
If you own a hand-held light meter (like the Gossen Luna Pro F) you can dial in iso 0.8. Otherwise you can dial your meter to iso 25 and then just open up an additional 5 f-stops.
How do I process this film at home with FPP's ECN-2 Kit?
In addition to the normal directions for home-processing please add the following step. After your last step, rinse your film in a half bucket of hot water (80 - 102 degrees F). With your thumb, gently rub the non-emulsion side of your film as you remove it from your film reel. Careful not to scratch the emulsion side of your film. Final rinse under running water. You will see the black rem jet in your water as you rinse. That's it! Hang your film to dry and then scan! Enjoy!!!
