RE: Test on Kodak EIR Film

[Rolland Elliott <rolland_elliott@xxxxxxxxx>]

>Can anybody explain to me the phenomenon >described as follows :

The reason your slides looked bluer when you shot at shutter speeds of
1/15 of a second or less is that Kodak EIR exhibits a color shift and
recipricocity effects at shutter speeds below 1/10 of a second.  Below
1/10 of a second you should increase your exposure by one stop.  Color
correction filters can also be used to maintain a proper color
balance.  However trying to obtain a  proper color balance with EIR is
very subjective. You might like the cooler bluer look that comes with
using slower shutter speeds.  

For your second set of shots you were using shutter speeds around 1/30
of a second.  According to Kodak's tech data you shouldn't observe any
color shift, but I wouldn't be surprised if this did occur to a small
extent.  

Hope this helps.
Peace Rolland
P.S. If you are unfamiliar with the terms recipricocity or  color
shift, email me and I'll try to explain.
