I’ve only used cinestill color developing and been happy with the results. I’m curious what examples make the adox better for you versus cinestill?? I’m open to other developers glad you brought this up as an option.
In the cost breakdown, you don't need to factor in high res scans. Regardless of whether the lab developed the film or you did at home, you can still scan the film yourself at whatever resolution you are capable of...
I send my film to a lab because I don't feel comfortable with working with the chemicals in an apartment where I don't have a safe space to work.
These look good! And no surprise it came from Adox, they're good people and know how to make developers! My trick with powder is a magnetic stirrer, which makes this pretty safe and fast!
Love love LOVE this Molly Kate! Thanks so much for sharing your experience with us. Beautiful images.
Can I ask what V600 scanner settings you tend to use? I have the V550 and it would be super helpful to be able to compare (if you have the time!) Rachel
Great article Molly. It is a shame that its liquid. Liquid chems are getting so problematic to get through the post and of course you're paying for water shipment in a big part. I use the Cinestill 2 powder kit due to postage issues. But it has increased in price 100% of the last 5 years here in Australia. I cross process 250D in it and I like the results - but I like the savings of bulk rolled 250D from 400ft rolls more :)
great photos, the Ilfocolor looks great, from my shooting with Kodak Gold 200 and EkTar 100 this looks similar to both, Gold has more fidelity in the Green/red spectrum; and the EkTar has less visible grain, but still good colours, sharp, good job overall, esp. as its a home kit, normally from what others have said on YouTube, colour is finicky, exact temp and time, but this colour kit looks easy, like the Ilford 'simplicity' kit for Black & white {from YouTube videos of it}.
Any idea as to how long the unmixed chemicals will last? I don't shoot colour as much as B&W which is why I've never invested in kits that force you to mix all of it and then only get 3 months before expiry.

Thanks for the review! I have only used the CineStill kit and was never completely satisfied. I will definitely give this a try.
