ECN-2 (remjet) film development & processing

Description

Development and processing for a single roll of ECN-2 film (such as Vision3 or Eterna/Reala), including remjet removal. Cross-processing of regular non-remjet films is also no problem! I like to give you the flexibility to get your film the way you want it to be, so make sure to read the sections below.

Sample images are my own photos: scans of Vision3 250D, 500T, and 500T shot at ISO 3200, pushed 3 stops.

Development

• If you have any special requests (for example a bleach bypass or a 3-stop push/pull), please send me a mail first via the contact form so we can work out the details. If you can fill my processor with your custom order (5 or 8 films at once) your changes will be free (incl. push/pull)!
• I can do souped film but you’ll have to let me know before ordering that you have a souped can. I’ll charge a bit extra as I need to run your film through my processor separately from the rest to prevent damaging other customer’s films.

Scanning

• Standard 35mm scans are 2000dpi (6MP, 2000×3000) 16-bit TIFF files from a Nikon Coolscan 5000.
  • If you want the full 4000dpi (24MP, 4000×6000) files, add a note (it’s free, but increases apparent grain!). Keep in mind: a full roll of 16-bit TIFFs at 2000dpi is 1.2GB, but a 36exp roll at 4000dpi is 4.8GB of pixels.
• If you opt for hand-graded scans, make sure to let me know what you want (for example, cinematic, full tungsten white balance, etcetera) and I’ll do my best to get the results you ask for.

• 120/220 film and custom formats (XPan, etc) are scanned on an Epson V750 flatbed in 2400dpi (44MP, 5500×8000 for 6×9).
  • Scanning 220 film will have an additional €5 fee added to your order.

Processing

• Negatives are cut into strips of 6 and stored in transparent minilab sleeving by default. 35mm can additionally be stored in a ring binder perforated ADOX Adofile sleeve for €0,50.
• I can also leave your roll uncut (add a note to your order), but make sure you send enough plastic canisters with your rolls for me to put the negatives into as I will roll them into a piece of paper which I ship in a canister.

Notes

• Ship your rolls to the address listed on the Contact page. Make sure to note your order number somewhere.
• If you’re shipping films with plastic canisters, make sure to leave the cap off, otherwise they won’t fit through the mail slot!
  
• I also sell ECN-2 chemistry kits if you want to DIY your ECN-2 film development! They’re formulated exactly the same as I use them in the lab.
