What is this? Mystery Kodak film

[cheeze]

Perusing the bay for expired film lots, and this guy shows up: 1 ROLL KODAK EXPERIMENTAL COLOR REVERSAL FILM TUNGSTEN FE4808 E6 PROCESS EXPIRED. I can't seem to find anything about it on the internet, so I asked the seller where he acquired it, and he said it came with a huge lot of film when a NYC photog dumped all his analog gear.

Can anyone tell me more before I flush $10 down the toilet?

?? It's regular tungsten balanced slide film? Whats special about it?

 

[William Temple]

Yes it's nothing special, it will be well far gone now too. Save yourself $10

Buy fresh Fujifilm. Keep it alive

Bulk roll, 35mm cartridge, or 120 roll?

If a bulk roll, and it was freezer stored, might, just might, be a $10 gamble worth taking - unless you're in dire straights and living on the street, in which case I'd recommend against it.

Probably just a pre-release sample of EPJ - E-6 reversal film that got as far as being cardboard packaged with a properly printed box will not have been quite that experimental...

OK thanks for confirming my suspicions, everyone.

I use expired film all the time, but it should be pennies on the dollar. Not more expensive than when it was fresh!
