4. A note for Motion picture film users:
As motion picture film (Kodak vision 3) uses for filming, movie scenes are dynamic, involving changing light, scenarios, and setups. This dynamic nature makes it challenging for a scanner to adjust every scene's colour. Additionally, in cinefilm production, the flat image should be adjusted to achieve the desired look envisioned by the DP (Director of Photography) and the Director.
Therefore, after receiving scans from your ECN-2 films, feel free to bring them to your desired colour during post-production in Lightroom or other softwares.
Don't forget to jot down your order number and name on a note with your films. We've got you covered!
