Found this one digging around for something else. Wanted to post it in the past, but couldn't find it when I wanted to. This is from a test roll of (my all time favorite) Eastman Color Negative II 100T 5247 movie film that was made in 1974. Going by the numbers on the can & the code on the film, it was from the second batch, first year of production. I think it stood the test of time pretty well. The few white spots in the picture are remnants of the Remjet anti-halation backing that I couldn't get off the film all the way. The scratch below center was left by a rough spot on the film guide in my Rondinax daylight developing tank. The green cast is because I wasn't using the 85 filter that is needed for daylight shooting. I'll leave a link below, for anyone who is interested, to a website that lists some of the movies that were shot on this emulsion.

Shot On 5247....
 
Stationed in Iwakuni Japan in the 60's about the only thing to occupy your time was the bars outside the base. There was a photo shop on the base. About the only developing, was black and white film. That was interesting for me. I doubt B&W is done much anymore. Stan
 
Some people still swear by black & white. Either film or digital. I like it from time to time. It's nice to use in the winter when there's not a whole lot of color anyhow. Good time to see what your film can do in terms of rendering gray scale in terms of shading & contrast. A lot of that depends on your film & what developer you use.
