Experiment time! I used Flic Film Elektra (aka aerocolor iv) and Kodak Ultramax to see how different films would react to this method. I used the same HC-100 and C-41 recipe that works for E6. To be honest, this is the best of the entire two rolls- and the more overexposed ones definitely worked better. Scanning was a pain- the emulsion was very inconsistent using this technique. The base colour was different from frame to frame, so scanning as positives was the only way. There are a couple repeats in this album to show how different scanner settings can make a totally different image. I don't know if I'll do this again anytime soon, But if you care to try I'd definitely overexpose one stop.
Ricoh KR-X10 with SMC Pentax-M 50mm f/1.7: A Rugged SLR for the Serious Film Photography Enthusiast The Ricoh KR-X10 was introduced around 1980–1981 as part of Ricoh’s strategy to offer competitive, high-quality SLRs using the Pentax K-mount. This mount, originally developed by Asahi Pentax, was adopted by Ricoh to ensure compatibility with a wide range of lenses from Pentax, Chinon, Vivitar, Rikenon, and other brands that supported the K bayonet system. While Ricoh never dominated the SLR market like Nikon, Canon, or Pentax, it earned a strong reputation among photography enthusiasts for solid build quality and user-friendly designs. The KR-X10 (also known internationally as the XR-10 or XR-10M) was aimed at advanced amateurs, offering an electronically controlled shutter and aperture priority mode as key features. 🔧 Ricoh KR-X10 – Specs 📸 Film Format: 35mm 🔗 Lens Mount: Pentax K-bayonet ⚙️ Exposure Modes: – Fully Manual – Aperture Priority with electronic shutter speeds 🕰️ Shutter: Electronically controlled horizontal cloth shutter – Speeds: 1/1000s to 4s + Bulb – Mechanical fallback: 1/90s (X-sync) if battery fails 📏 ISO Range: ASA 12 – 3200 (manual) 🔍 Viewfinder: Pentaprism with central microprism and split-image focusing aid 💡 Metering: TTL, open aperture with LED readout 🔋 Battery: 2x SR44 or LR44 (only 1/90s and Bulb work without battery) ⚡ Flash Sync: Hot shoe + PC sync, X-sync at 1/90s ⏱️ Self-Timer: Yes, mechanical 📐 Size: ~138 × 90 × 50 mm ⚖️ Weight: ~560 g (body only) Lens: SMC Pentax-M 50mm f/1.7 The SMC Pentax-M 50mm f/1.7 is one of the most beloved standard lenses of the film era.
