    Attachment 10423

    check this out . i just picked them up today from the camera store . fuji velvia 100 about 6 months out of date . sorry i do not have a 4x5 scanner so the best i can do are 6x12 panorama's . the camera store guy and i are blaming the lab . i have used this film a few weeks before with no problem .

    so what are your ideas . scans are exact i did not adjust .

    thanks

    There are others that ae more expert than I am on this but my first guess is that it was mistakenly crossprocessed.

    Cross processing reversal in color negative developer does not look like this. The green layer adds density and the red is actually diminished. If the images were a couple of stops underexposed, I'd say that the film was loaded backwards in the film holder. The anti-halation backing, although it looks black, has a some color. Ted, how does the density of the image look?

    I used much older Fuji Velvia 100 4x5" and did not get any color shift at all. The problem is what you loaded the sheets backwards.

    I'd guess temperature control failure but exhausted chemistry is also a possibility. Variation in the magenta cast from pic to pic suggests that the variable was in the development process - again a delta in temperature during the six film sequence.

    Mark, I never thought of that . Mine was a shot in the dark sort of as I have never seen E6 cross processed in C41. Nathan could be on the right track but I have processed E6 with some pretty strange (but consistant) temperatures and never had that sort of cast.

    Tim,
    I never saw anything like this at all in my experience with the film.

    my guess is (after several suggestions) the red layer is closest to the anti-halation layer - yup - check it out last page of this document

    http://www.fujifilm.com/products/pro.../Velvia100.pdf

    the film was loaded backwards

    i think i figured it out . it's my unlined burgundy leather camera bellows . i shined a flashlight through one side and it produces a nice red color . i will test tomorrow with the lined bellows to confirm.

    thanks for your help
