Subject: ektachrome vs fujichrome in longevity / stabilityDate: 2011-12-13 12:49:41From: borisstarosta
I posted this to the "film3d" group, but then realized this group might be the better one to ask:
Ken Rockwell reviewed some Ektachrome and made the aside statement that Fuji
films are more stable. He repeats this in his overview on films entitled "Film and Printing:"
http://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/film.htm
Obviously this is of great interest to some of us stereo
shooters, as the piece of film itself is the collectible item, and we'd like it to last as long as possible.
Does anyone on this list have an opinion or knowledge about this?
I was thinking of buying some Ektachrome 100G for shooting nudes, but have
previously always used Fuji Astia / Sensia films.
WHat are your favorite slide films for skin tones under daylight or flash
illumination?
thanks,
Boris
