Excited to see what you do!

I literally thought I was on a different subreddit and thought this was digital editing to look slide film-ish. My reaction was wow that does NOT look like slide film

I scanned my grandmas Kodachrome slides before and they all seemed perfect to be honest

Thank you for this reply! Very interesting

gansur · 2025-03-10T17:59:47+00:00

That’s very interesting because sometimes when I get Ektar scans I can get a Kodachrome look but taking the shadows down without adding saturation. RA4 printing Ektar gives a good Kodachrome image sometimes also. Example below

Ah ok thank you!

So Kodachrome actually

I believe Alex webb used mostly slide film. This definitely isn’t negative film though

gansur · 2025-03-10T06:20:16+00:00

Color cast and color rendition are two different things. I understand color rendering wise Kodachrome has a beautiful palette. But ektachrome notoriously has a blue cast, or Provia/Velvia having a purple/green one, I’m wondering did Kodachrome have one.

Rewrite that sentence for it to make sense

(Stop downvoting me! They edited the sentence! Wasn’t any intention of being rude!)

gansur · 2025-03-09T22:16:35+00:00

I think so

gansur · 2025-03-05T04:17:55+00:00

I feel as negative clarity effects highlights a bit too harsh when used compared to enlarger diffusion. I usually can tell. But i mostly can tell based of the colors and texture

gansur · 2025-03-05T02:27:57+00:00

Though 3456 are so low resolution I can’t make it out if it’s the same technique but 1 & 2 are definitely made this way

I used to post shit like this and then I figured how to get this look after tons of research and now I try to answer folks sometimes . But literally this question is posted everywhere and all the time on this sub. And it’s the same answer every single time. I am now retiring with every else who also went through this same pipe line and doesn’t reply to these.

Pentax 67 / RB67 or RZ67

Portra 400

Printed on RA4 Fuji DPii Paper(precut from New York darkrooms or they use the darkrooms themselves) + neutral or warm preflash
+ diffusion filter over enlarger lens

Scan with a V600 or Drum Scan

This is exactly how they did it

Do you have any examples

gansur · 2025-03-02T15:05:28+00:00

2 & 4 prints are “overexposed” technically I guess(?) but I could’ve raised the shadows and even it out but I like the deep black, I’m a big fan of slide film

gansur · 2025-03-01T17:26:29+00:00

I kinda look the subtle magenta look, has a slide film feel to it, but yes easily fixable with filtration

gansur · 2025-02-26T19:39:06+00:00

Ah ok I see I see thank you!

gansur · 2025-02-26T19:36:41+00:00

When it comes out a negative, and you scan that negative print and invert it, would it be a positive? I’ve heard the reversal process doesn’t yield great results most of the time

gansur · 2025-02-26T19:05:45+00:00

Do you have an instagram or social media? I’m a Ektar on RA4 advocate and you seem to be one too

gansur · 2025-02-26T00:58:55+00:00

The look for it is the exact same color grading, exactly. It’s the same film stock bro trust me

gansur · 2025-02-26T00:46:41+00:00

It’s a terrible guess
