Cinestill 800T Developed in ECN-2 Chemistry

[kxl]

I shot some Cinestill 800T and developed them in ECN-2 chemistry, scanned them with my Z6 III (with a Valoi Easy35 attachment) and inverted them using Cinestill's free software.

I have not made any edits to these images, and granted they are nothing to write home about, but I really like how flat and low contrast they are when using ECN-2 chemistry--perfect for scanning and post-processing edits in Photoshop.

I also shot some Kodak 5219 (which I do HAVE TO develop in ECN-2 chemistry), and I'm hoping they come out just as flat and low contrast. Obviously, with 5219, there is that extra step of removing the remjet layer.

Yeah that looks like a good template for editing. Tip; I tried the free Grain2Pixels plugin for PS yesterday, seems to do a much better job than the Cinestill thing for LR, which is just a preset really. And you don't have to deal with backwards controls. 🙂
