Ahhh, I remember that post, it was about the Raiders print. Mine is on Agfa 1s and it has no fade, so I'm wondering if it's because of your environment. I remember you said you lived in a moist, hot humid climate? That perhaps, might have an effect on Agfa developing a fade. It did appear by the screenshots, that something had happened to the print beyond normal wear and tear. The first screen capture had perfect blacks and the deep oranges from that early scene, were the same as on my print. The daytime shots from about five minutes later in the reel have very abnormal color.
I personally, have never ran into any fade on Agfa, even thirty year old Agfa. The fact still stands, that many L.P.P. prints have a bluish cast, and this is over a long period of years, with a number of film companies the worldwide.
I should mention that occasionally, L.P.P. can shine as well. It's better having it than not. Much better than the non L.P.P. eastman, but nowhere near the Agfa. By the way, always nice to see your screenshots Gian.
Winbert, note, for comparison, the color quality of "ET", and the color of "Who Framed Roger Rabbit". The Roger print, spot on, (even comparing it to the DVD 2 disc release) the ET print has that slightly off color feel to it of L.P.P. ansd if you compare it to the DVD, big comparison.
However, I must say in defense of the ET print, that it could perhaps be due to the original negative sourced for the print.
(it does appear slightly blue. Note the screen shot of the lovely little Drew Barrymore. There is a plant behind here on the shelf. Note that leaves are nearly blue, with almost no green to them at all. The DVD clearly shows natural green leaves on the plant. This is only my personal estimation mind you, but the prints not too bad. Good one to have Gian).
tonights viewing ...
repeat of "Little Match Girl" (Columbia, 1938) L.P.P.
"A Christmas Carol" Feature (1951, Alistar Sim) B/W
