KODAK EKTACHROME 100D Color Reversal Film 7285 in the Super 8 format. 100D Colour Reversal Film features bright saturated colors, fine grain with excellent sharpness. It is important to note that KODAK EKTACHROME 100D Color Reversal Camera Film 7285 is a daylight balanced film. No additional filtration is required when using the film in daylight conditions. The film cartridge is notched appropriately for the speed and color balance, which will allow it to perform optimally in automatic cameras. Many older manual cameras will require some special attention. Due to historical reasons (e.g. the films available at their time of manufacture), most of these cameras assume that the film to be used is tungsten balanced and either EI40 or EI160. (See Below)
FILTER USAGE Many cameras utilize an internal conversion filter to convert daylight illumination into a tungsten balance. This amber-colored filter is to be placed into the optical path when the manual selector is placed on the sun setting (the sun icon). With the daylight balanced 100D Film, it will be necessary to disengage this filter. Although it may sound counter-intuitive, this is accomplished by setting the manual exposure setting to the tungsten setting (the bulb icon), no matter what conditions you are shooting under. If you will be using 100D Film under tungsten illumination, we recommend the use of an 80A external filter.
EXPOSURE KODAK EKTACHROME 100D Colour Reversal Camera Film 7285 is an ISO 100 rated product. It is important when exposing the film under daylight conditions that the camera is set as close to ISO 100 as possible. Some (older) cameras may automatically set the exposure to ISO 160 (which is a default setting based on the former KODAK EKTACHROME 160T Film). At an ISO 160 exposure setting (approximately + 1/2 stop underexposed), results in many situations should still be acceptable. It is believed that the majority of S8 cameras manufactured prior to 1970 came with a fixed film exposure setting of ISO 40. At an ISO 40 exposure setting (approximately 1 1/4 stop overexposed) the film would require either the use of a 0.3 Neutral Density filter. |
