I shot an entire 24-exposure roll of Kodak Vision3 50D 35mm film that I bought from the Film Photography Project. I exposed the roll while out for a mid-October hike looking for fall colour in Community Park North and Billie Johnson Mountain Lakes Nature Preserve. Because of the low ISO, I brought along my Manfrotto tripod, Minolta XD-11 and exposed each frame from the tripod.
The roll was developed at Boutique Film Lab and scanned with VueScan 9 on my Epson Perfection V600u using my normal workflow. I spent $10.00 for ECN-2 processing plus $6.50 for return shipping. The total cost to produce these frames, including the film, was $25.49.
I was disappointed with all but one frame, the one in the post header. All of the other frames look terrible. They look flat—what a waste of money. This is similar to my experience with Kodak Vision3 250D. Fortunately, this was my only roll of Kodak Vision3 50D. I will not be using this film stock again.
I have two rolls of CineStill 400D that I am now apprehensive about using. Compared to the digital versions, there is nothing desirable about these frames.
