6121 is slide duplicating film.
for making positives from positives.
It is a E6 process .

You are cross-processing? Essentially the same thing as Edupe, but earlier and probably a bit of color balance difference.

yes thats what i was after.. some of the dupe films have way too much contrast to shoot in daylight.

I have some of this too and I'm wondering what to do with it. AFAIK it's tungsten balance, but has anyone got any suggestions as to what ISO to try? I was thinking about some night exposures perhaps?

I've got a couple hundred sheets of this stuff and have seen some results for an in-camera film on flickr that look promising. Anyone have experience shooting this stuff and processing e6? or c41?
I'll shoot some before my next processing run.

The odds of this still being good with respect to highlight reproduction and general saturation are questionable. But you might get some interesting "off" results. So
might as well try.

Yeah, I'm not expecting it too look like fresh ektachrome and it's taking up space in the freezer. Sounds like 8asa with an 85b filter for starters processed in E6.
When folks told me that ektachrome 64 and 200 that I had which expired in the late 80's would be no good at all, I shot/souped it and proved them wrong. The results were just fine for shots of my family.

I have maybe 150 sheets of Fuji 8x10 CDUII in the freezer which I bought for next to nothing and might be fun to shoot thru and 85b. Will probably have crossover in
the highs by now. But I'd still have to pay for E6 processing and Cibachrome is gone anyway, so maybe just good for a new set of bookends.
