Kodak Vision 3 250D Re-Spooled by Reflx Labs.
The big alternative to traditional colour negative film is motion picture stock, in this case Kodak Vision 3 line of film in both daylight and tungstan grades and used by the kilometer by the likes of Christopher Nolan and Quentin Tarrantino. The big difference aside from the remjet layer on motion picture films to allow it to go through movie cameras is also the main reason you can't drop the likes of 50 or 250 D off at your local C-41 lab. The folks at Burlington Camera told me their lab tech at to take their Nortisu apart and flush it multiple times because of said remjet layer.
Fear not, there are options for your colour motion picture stock film processing, you can do it yourself cross processing in C-41 or a ECN-2 chemistry kit and of course getting rid of the Remjet with a pre bath. Alternately if you live in the Greater Toronto Region, you can drop off at Downtown Camera or the new lab in town, Graination on Spadina Ave who are fast becoming one of my favourite labs in the city.
