We got back the “real” film, along with CDs for each roll, so I should have those pics up in the next day or so (depending on other workload, ahem).
Some interesting observations on the new Kodak B&W film which can be processed with the normal C-41 color:
- The prints (on color stock, I assume) have an odd sepia quality to them. The CDs don’t, thank goodness.
- The film, ISO 400, did a really crappy job in low-contrast or dark conditions. The best photos by far were with good, high-contrast exteriors.
It’s possible, of course, that some of this was due to the CostCo processing.
Fortunately, only one of the rolls, a B&W one, seems to have been damaged by x-rays.
One other thing which must be noted: even though I tend to think of myself as the “artistic” member of the household, Margie is a damn fine photographer. Even if the pictures she takes of me make me look fat.
