Luminar (Kodak Aerocolor Iv) really is a lovely film.

It's a shame Kodak themselves never sold it in individual rolls, but I guess that was because they were marking up their current offerings as high as they could.

All shots on a Canon Populaire with lens and film noted in photo caption. Still trying to nail development technique with Cinestill D96 monobath processing (it's meant to be a no-brainer, right?)


FYI films like Acros, Delta, Tmax need double the developing time in DF96 Monobath to clear the base fog.

Thanks Desmolicious!

New to the forum here. Without the paid membership, is there a way to post a photo in the comment the way everyone else is?

There's a really informative article about it here: https://www.analog.cafe/r/santacolor-100-film-review-n4pm

I've shot two rolls with it over the past year but wasn't happy with the lab scans as the colors were very unnatural on most shots, but it turns out that's common due to the lack of orange mask. I now have my own scanner so will rescan the negatives to see if they come out better; I was able to color-correct the JPEG scans from my lab but it would be better to rescan.

If you have a Flickr account, you could try this: https://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1369568

I'm sure there are workarounds for other platforms too.

I had no issues, but that is because I scan the film myself, and set the WB for each unique film type (saving it as a preset). I do that by using the WB dropper in a piece of the unexposed film.
It sounds like your lab did not accommodate for this film and just used a generic setting that they use for Kodak/Fuji etc.

IMO Aerocolor IV has a pleasant peachy tone to it.

That's probably right, although I've heard complaints from others about colors that seem far off. Here are a few examples of lab-scanned shots of Aerocolor IV:

The gravel path in this one was actually grey in real life but came out brick-red in their scan:

And this one has an orange cast that I see in many of the scans:

This one came out better, but I think I did some color-correction in post:

Yeah, the lab did not use a scanning conversion setting for the correct film. They most probably don't even have one.
If you want you can send me a film strip and I will scan/convert it w my Aerocolor IV preset.

It is actually Aerocolor IV. Aerochrome was that cool infrared slide film.

Aerocolor does want to go slightly warm/peachy/magenta. It is a little tricky to correct. I have some frames that I just cannot get 100% "right".

It is a pretty nice film, sometimes-strange-color-casts aside. I have shot some on 120; will post those up soon.
