Fuji F-500 30m

• 30m bulk roll for bulk loading
• Fuji F-500 motion picture film with remjet backing
• Subtle grain & punchy colors
• Older material with its own look, ECN-2 development recommended

The 30m of film can be used to spool individual rolls in a film loader/bulk loader. Alternatively, the film can also be manually spooled into individual rolls in a darkbag/darkroom. The film is wound on a core in a black bag, which in turn is in a film can. Only open the can in complete darkness! Here you will find instructions for loading the film.

The predecessor of the Eterna 500T with its own look, comparable to V1 500T in the 2000s. The film is easy to edit digitally and shows beautifully rich colors with a certain character.

Since this is Fujifilm, it is highly recommended to develop the film in ECN-2, where the colors are pronounced and realistic, while the film gets an experimental look in C-41.
In midday sun or very cool light, an 85B filter is recommended, as the film otherwise tends to have a blue cast. This can be corrected to a limited extent in post-processing.

Motion picture film: This film has a remjet layer, so it can’t be dropped of at a normal lab, because that would damage their processing machine! There are numerous specialized labs that develop this film, a List can be found here. Alternatively, developing at home is not complicated, a guide can be found here.

Age: This film dates from around 2000 and therefore has a lower ISO than the manufacturer’s specification, as film loses sensitivity (ISO) with age. We therefore determine the True ISO (see below in the properties), with which the film is correctly exposed.
