The KKONO! Rotwild 400 is a color negative film. It is a redscale film. That is, images with the are characterized by deep red to yellow hues.
The sensitivity is specified as ISO 400 and according to the manufacturer, the material used is based on a film used in the production of motion pictures.
Redscale film
Redscale film is a special type of color film in which the film is loaded upside down in the camera so that the light-sensitive material is exposed from the back of the film. This produces warm reds and oranges, while blues and greens are suppressed. This results in a unique, often very artistic look in the photographs.
Development of the KONO! Rotwild 400
It must be developed using the C-41 process. Before development, the film should be rotated back in the correct direction. This avoids streaks and scratches on the film surface. Of course, the turning process must take place in complete darkness.
Another problem with developing Redscale film is the prints. Most photo labs perform image correction to optimize colors before making the prints. However, color correction is not possible with Redscale photos, which can result in disappointing prints. In this case, it is recommended that you digitize and print the images yourself or advise the photo lab of the special requirements of Redscale films.
Formats
The KONO! Redscale 400 is only available as 35mm film with 24 frames. The 35mm format offers a wide range of possible models for exposing this photographic film. One of the most common types is the compact camera, which is easy to use and usually inexpensive. There are also viewfinder cameras that offer a clear view of the subject through a viewfinder. Another type of 35mm camera is the SLR, which offers greater control over exposure, depth of field, and other settings.
