E6 in 110

There was discussion in another thread about Ektachrome in 110, which Kodak doesn't seem to be making, but it does seem that there is a Lomography 110 E6 film.

 

Does anyone know the history of this film? Seems to be ISO 200.

Not much history to report. I've been using it a few years and really like E6 in the tiny format. Cross processes well in C41. I love the grain from the film

So this is the one you use, not left over for many years Ektachrome 64.

 

Seems to be out of stock now, but suggests that more will come.

 

As I remember, there is a 2in lens for regular sized Kodak projectors for them,

that doesn't work for big slides. I have a 2.5in lens that does work, though.

(Nice if you have a small room and a big screen.)

 

I have a Pentax Auto 100, but haven't tried it yet.

The Lomo E-6 film claims a speed of ASA 200.

 

The Lomo C-41 film, also at 200, shoots fine in an Auto 110. I don't know how well it would work with an E-6 film since your speed options on an Auto 110 are 80 and 320.

 

You MIGHT get away with an Auto 110 Super by filing the cartridge for "high speed" and then holding down the +1 2/3 button on it.

 

Otherwise, probably best to use a Minolta with exposure compensation.

 

I love my Pentax for 110, but the lack of any kind of control over exposure does kind of kill it.

My understanding is that the shutters in the Pentax are only good to within 1/2 stop anyway...so hopefully all the errors will even out...LOL.

I have six rolls of C41 film that I bought and refrigerated, even without thinking how soon they would stop making them.

 

I also have some not so new VP-110 to use, but no E6 films in 110.
