Expired Ektachrome 64T (freezer kept)

[Hibbs]

In my freezer I have a couple of rolls of Ektachrome 64T, 120.

I was thinking of using it in daylight with my Yashica may 124G. The reason is that I have a B30 filter Wrattan #85.

Will this filter tame the blue enough or should I get a 85B for my Fuji 6X7RF II?

Any comments would be most appreciated.

Thanks kindly.

I still have, in a box, the color conversion filter which I used with 64T slide film in daylight in the good ol' days, and I just checked it out. It's a B+W KR12 85 filter. The results were perfect. So my guess is that you don't need a 85B if you already have a 85.

I was given some Ektachrome by a friend and it was never refrigerated: expired 2008. I just shot it straight (and it is now in the fridge). It came out fine:

It's a shame to shoot a film like Ektachrome 64t during the day with a corrective filter. Shoot it at night unfiltered 🙂

Thanks zenza...that is why I bought it. Night shots in the city.
