Kodacolor II on a 620 Spool

This roll of Kodacolor 620 came in a eBay auction I won. Kodacolor II, which I believe uses process C-22, is a film I've had consistent troubles with. The film base is the same color as a darkroom safelight, so there's no way to print the images. The dark film base also robs the images of a LOT of contrast. The silver content in these images seems lower than some films, so the results are also often thin, despite the negative base being dark. In all, these three photos represent a lot of work, but seeing images from the 1960s or so that no one has ever seen before is always worth the effort.








For fun, I though I would add a photo from a roll of Ilford SFX 120 that came in the auction. The roll had two identical and very boring images.


What's that? You don't believe me? Well, here's the other.



Found Photos Friday returns next week with some photos I found inside a Canon EOS Rebel GII I bought and then sold. While I owned it, though, I made these videos:
