Analogue Adventures – Part 54: Kodak Ektar 25 (expired) C-41

Kodak Ektar 25

Kodak Ektar 25 was a professional low ISO colour negative film first released in 1989. This film was already discontinued in 1994 and that probably makes it one of the oldest films I had a look at here. 
Processing (C-41) and scanning was done at urbanfilmlab in Germany, the pictures in this article are from one roll of film. I also took into account it expired some time ago and chose ISO12.

Analogue Adventures – Part 53: Harman Phoenix 200 ECN-2

Harman Phoenix 200

This Harman Phoenix 200 is said to be a newly designed colour negative analogue film that hit the market in early 2024. Many people did not expect anyone except for Kodak and Fuji even being able to produce a (new) color negative film, so it created quite the buzz. I already had this film developed in C-41 and I wasn’t too happy with the results, so this time I tried the ECN-2 process.
Processing (ECN-2) and scanning was done at Silbersalz in Germany. The pictures in this article are from one roll of film. Per recommendation when having the film ECN-2 developed I shot it at half box speed (ISO 100).

Analogue Adventures – Part 52: Kodak Ektachrome E200 (expired)

Kodak Ektachrome E200

Kodak Ektachrome E200 is a daylight slide film whose production ceased a very long time ago. I got my hands on a roll (expired in 2009), so let’s see what we are missing out on these days.
Processing (E-6) was done at ProLab in Stuttgart, scanning was done by one of our readers via a DSLR. The pictures you see in this article are from one roll.

Analogue Adventures – Part 51: Kodak Pro Image 100 ECN-2

Kodak Pro Image 100

I already shot Kodak Pro Image 100 and had it developed in the typical C-41 process, this time we see how it turns out when developed in the more complex ECN-2 process.
Processing (ECN-2) and scanning was done at Silbersalz35 in Germany. The pictures in this article are from one roll of film. Per recommendation when having the film ECN-2 developed I shot it at half box speed (ISO 50).

In late 2021 I decided to buy an analogue camera and shoot some film, an experiment whose results I constantly shared with you. In the meantime I exposed around 60 films, which I all had developed and scanned and many of these pictures we also discussed afterwards. This is is already the 50th part of this series, so I thought it might be time for an interim conclusion.

Keep in mind I am only talking about 35mm film here.
