2

A slide film famous among Lomographers for its unique highly saturated colors, the Kodak Elite Chrome EBX (Extra Color) 100 was famous among film photographers who loved experimenting and coming up with unique photos through cross-processing, together with other film stocks such as the AgfaPhoto CT Precisa 100 and the Lomography X-Pro Chrome.

Today we're discussing the charm of the Kodak Elite Chrome EBX 100 which became a household name for its fine grain, saturation and mass market availability before its discontinuation. Let's get into it!

Processed as normal in E6, the stock produces sharp saturated photos with fine grain. Meanwhile, Kodak Elite Chrome EBX 100 shines when cross-processed in C-41 chemicals, revealing wild and vivid colors fit for every Lomographer with an experimental side. Depths and shadows are darker and more pronounced, and yellows and blues stand out especially.

Since it's rated at ISO 100, Kodak Elite Chrome EBX 100 is another film stock that surely loves the sunlight. It's perfect for outdoor shooting or for styles such as landscape or street photography. The film stock was produced in 35 mm format. It was discontinued in 2012, making one on the market today a pretty rare find.

    Great tribute to put one of Klawe's photo ❤️ hard to believe this was the first slide film I ever bought in 2008. At that time the price of one fresh Kodak EBX at Kamal Foto Bandung was Rp 36.000 (today $1 = Rp 15.000) and I consideree at that time as very expensive because the cheapest color negative film was cost Rp 12.000. But after very satisfied with my first Kodak EBX cross process then I bought ten roll and Kamal Foto gave me a discount yeay oh also the iconic Pak Raden Kodak tote bag
