Shot this roll of Kodak Ektapress 1600 - age unknown but could be 30 yrs old - and not 'correctly' stored.
Rated it at 160, judging by the thin negs this ISO 1600 film is now an ISO 50 film..
You know how they say don't use expired film for anything important? Well a storm had just passed through, the light was clean, clear and pure, and the surf was up. I should have loaded fresh film...
But I still like these in a super grainy, colour shifty, blotchy abstract lomo kinda way.

https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53433512712_9ec14ef90f_b.jpgWow. the grain on that Ektapress 1600 is intense! I remember 1600 being very grainy but somehow I don't remember it being that extreme.... or that intensely colorful. Is the extra graininess due to the film's age?
Regarding those intense colors -- Is that how it came SooC or did you tone-up the colors in post? One of the things that I love about shooting film is that you don't have the ability to fake colors to extreme surrealistic levels, the emulsion just does what it does. One of the reasons that I HATE digital is that none of the colors...Show more →
They only look like that due to age and inappropriate storage. No way would the grain normally look like that. The saturation was from trying to fix the murkiness etc. the negs really were a mess.

Great shots man and Love the Porta!
How are you liking the 800T? I love it at night and with bright lights - How did you like the rest of the roll with family type shots, assuming that’s what you took?
Thanks Rusty. I think it's a neat film for night time, like in my mind of an old gas station with the lights on or something. For my current life where I'm stuck mostly indoors with young kids most of the time I'll probably stick to Portra 400/800. I just wanted to try it for Christmas lights, but it was so cold that night I barely took any pictures. But here's a few snaps from that roll. Oh and no light leaks!

I shot another roll in the Reto SnapCracklePop n Slim (that's the sound it makes as you wind the film). 36 exp in about 90 mins. Which brings up a flaw in all these cheap plastic cameras that use a serrated wheel to wind on the film. That serrated wheel becomes really uncomfortable to use unless you spread your shooting of that one roll over a week if not longer.
Also shot two rolls in a Nikonos which because it has a film advance lever like nature intended, was as comfortable as caressing a newborn deer swaddled in velvet.
But I digress, from the first roll in the Reto CrunchyTaco n Slim with old old Fuji Super G 800:

Dec 26 I adopted (now) Riley from the Downey animal shelter. He had been there two months, and his time was up. He had 72 hours left. I had lost my beloved Peppers on August 3rd and had felt that aching ever since. Riley was not to replace Peppers, but saving him for Peppers.
It's heartbreaking that these shelters are overflowing so please adopt and save a life.
Camera of choice? Samsung AF Slim Zoom (w Fuji Press 400 @ 100) as it was going to be a handful and I just needed something to P&S, as well as the fact I was going to hand it over to someone to take pics of us. When you do that the only explanation you want to give is 'point and shoot!'.
Here is the handing over. In the few days since I have had him he has been a pure joy. Friendly to everyone - dogs and people, perfectly behaved.

https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53434286479_9e3ceff3c4_b.jpgthanks! There are lots of Samsung p&s, but I narrowed it down to two. Either the AF Slim, or the AF Slim Zoom. The Zoom is the one w the 35-70 lens, avoid the others (they are big, clunky etc).
Also do NOT get the AF Slim R. It is not an improved AF Slim, but a much cheapened version with worse lens and very limited shutter speeds.
Thanks for the info. I'll take a look around and see if I can find a decent 35-70. I have a tired Canon SureShot TeleMax that's slow and noisy, but the IQ is actually not too bad. I think it's a 35/70.

Samsung AF Slim Zoom, Fuji Press 400 @ 100
FYI the camera is DX only, but it defaults to 100 if there is no DX code. So I covered the DX code with a little piece of black tape to shoot the old 400 at 100, as that pretty much was what it's real ISO was now after 20-25 years.

Here's one from the Canon with ProImage. Classic "see, point, shoot" situation.
