Response to Film: Kodak T400CN - Process C-41

from Terry Carraway (TCarraway@compuserve.com)
Paula,

Yes, this film is processed as color (as we spell it in the US) film. You can get prints made on color paper, but you may find that they come out with color casts (not true blacks). You can tell the lab (if it is any good at all) to bias the color in a certain direction, like a brownish for a sepia toned look.

These films are better printed on real B&W paper, but most people have the lab print on color paper as proofs. You can then see which pictures to spend the money or time to get enlarged.

BTW if you only have the ability to have the pictures printed on color paper, Kodak B&W Select + works better. That is why it came out.

WRT filters, all of these films react to filters the same as B&W film. In B&W the filters effect the tonality, and they will print properly, at any lab. They can only effect overall density and color, not tonality.
