Ektachrome E100 Image Thread!

[dmr]

First frame, first roll. Just kind of a random street shot, but it shows that the film speed and the sunny-16 rule and the meter in the camera all seem to agree. 🙂

My first impression is that the character of the film is somewhat between Astia and Kodachrome. Looks more vivid than Astia.

I'm still working through some minor scan issues but the finished ones so far look good.

Man, that is great news about the hip!!!!:angel:

Time to celebrate! But easy going though....

I cannot wait to see what you come up with shooting some new E100.😉

Yes I had a tough time with this one, medicine goof ups.

I'll be able to shoots some soon. I love some of my images from my first roll, but I thinking of fill flash for the early and late afternoon.

Like this one that would have benefited:

Sorry, I didn't read this until I was back. But thanks, I have two children that live in SB so that is a good hint.

My first roll. The reds just jump out at you. Great saturation. Not as fine grained as Velvia, but still excellent. First observations are all positive (excuse the bad pun).

Scanned with my iphone 8 with the film still in the plastic sleeve (will do a proper scan tomorrow)

Shot with Fuji TX-2 and 45mm lens w/ center filter.

Slide film is awesome cuz you can just toss it onto a light pad and gaze at it lovingly...

Fuji TX-2, 45mm lens, Kodak E100, fingers by moi, iphone 'scan', film still in its plastic wrapper.

I finally got to shoot a couple rolls. Just got them back. Via M3 and original Nokton 50/1.5:

Any direct comparisons (not necessarily same photo, but two shots side by side, or on the same scanner?) to E100G ?

From what I've seen, it's not super contrasty, and the mid tones are a little... murky?

 

[goamules]

I never shot E100G, and seldom regular Ektachrome, I was a Kodachrome guy.

That bridge shot was in high contrast conditions, so the mid tones are rare. The street shot also pretty bright lighting, overhead. This shot is in more subdued (missed the focus):

Here's one I like, look at the clouds:

 

[GarageBoy]

Thanks, I meant earthtones, not mid tones

I guess I'll have to shoot a roll and see. I wanna see if it pops with leaves, reds etc

 

[goamules]

Don't know what "pop" means, but you can see my bridge shot has leaves and reds. Why not try a roll, that's what they made it for.

I just rescanned the slides that the lab had done. What a difference, much better, sharper, deeper colors than what their system uses.

Lab scan:

I don't have a ton of examples yet, I've mostly been shooting through my Provia stash. Plus the harsh california summer light isn't the best for slide. I quite like what I've gotten so far though. It's more neutral than Provia, with less tendency to go blue in open shade and has better skin tones, but it doesn't have the punch that the Fuji film does.

Really enjoyed this thread. Getting the desire to shoot some film again. I've not shot film for years, but still have over a dozen cameras and many lenses. I thought that I would get back to film due to my preference for B&W film, but this thread has me interested in E-6 again. Need to re-educate myself on using my Jobos. I've not shot much 35mm E-6, but love 645 and especially 6x7.
Any speculation as to when there might be a 120 version of this film? Viewing 6x7 slide film on a lightbox is just stunning. I never projected, but that must be something.

My small stash of former Ektachrome is now gone. I decided to cross processed the very last roll in C-41 and was surprised that with good inversion the results don't have to scream 'lomo'. The grain is bigger, though.

This is cross-processed Elitechrome 100 ("consumer" version of Ektachrome) expired in 2012:



And this is the new E100 (standard E-6 process):
