Picked these up for $2 at a flea market about a year ago, and tonight while bored at home I figured I'd throw then into the projector.

Paper slide holders are badly degraded to the point of making it very difficult to hold the slides in place. Figured it's a neat curiosity to share.

Presume it's kodachrome, but it could pass off for Harman Phoenix.

Shoot more slide film.

Just as my newly bought OM-4 (Original model) shipped, a lovely reddit user who'd seen my comments about the camera offered to sell me a spare one he picked up years ago and never looked at again. Silly good price too.

Brand new, and serviced by the lovely John from Zuiko.com to make up for 20+ years in storage.

Safe to say my GAS is thoroughly quenched for the time being. Now to stop buying crap and start actually using it.

Much to the dismay of my newly arrived OM-4, the Ti is going to have all the fun.

Added as troubleshooting in case someone knows of a faster/better way to scan/edit slide film so it looks more "projection-like" and less blue cast from all the E-6 scans I've done. Really quickly put them through Lightroom, and out as JPGs so I haven't really sat down and edited. Halfway thinking of testing an 812 filter.

​

On the last pic you can see the actual film be significantly better color balanced.

​

Anyway, I can't believe this worked!

​

Ignore the bad focus and composition on these as I was rushing a little. This was purely to see if *anything* would come out. Got a whole bulk roll of this, and the gamble seems to have paid off. This beautiful, expired, salmon scented bulk roll WORKS!

​

Sent this to AGX labs in Michigan. My previous labs returned an insanely blue cast set of E-6 rolls, and I'm glad I found someone to do things properly. HIGHLY encourage you to use them for any E-6.

Asking $130 shipped. Negotiable.

​

Camera is in fantastic shape. Will attach a picture of a photo taken with it last week. Zero problems on viewfinder or lens. Lens has a spec of dust but it doesn't register in the pictures whatsoever.

​

Literally only bought it to go to a music festival but that's not happening anymore. Got it from a photographer around where I live and he took great care of it.

Just looking to get what I paid for them. Wife and I can't make it anymore due to a health emergency.

Like a monkey that discovered fire I finally took the plunge into bulk rolling. An old neighbor of mine had some forgotten velvia bulk in his freezer he graciously passed to me. Damn thing stinks like fish from all those years.

​

Got myself an AP loader and spent the better part of 3 hours sweating bullets at the thought of screwing anything up.

​

Got some foma ortho and vision 500T next on the block. The savings may be minimal, but whatever.

Happy with most of these except a LOT of scratching fixed in Lightroom. Shot in Vision3 250D and lomo 92.

Sadly the internal roller + some dust gave them a pretty good scratching. Best I could do in terms of saving them.

Don't mind the scratches! Working to fix that soon. Took these over the last two weeks on Kodak 250D and Lomo 92 35mm film.

This city is magical.

Got this spot by our bedroom. Entire home is 60s/70s themed.

Was thinking to put an arcade machine and some other game themed things, but idk anymore.

Not really interested into making a dining room. We'd hardly use it.

Partly underexposed, partly terrible lab. Sadly almost all the roll had dust and blotches on it that I tried to edit out. On top of everything they came out EXTREMELY blue, and this is what I was able to salvage.

Apparently it can be a water temperature issue causing the blue cast. Film expires next year so I doubt it was that. Considering a warming filter too, but I thought that was more of an E100 thing.

Anyway, if anyone has more experience I'd love to know if you also struggled with the blue/magenta as well.
