Eventually finished a roll in the OM1 & tried Cinestill C41 kit ….

I loaded my trusty Olympus OM1 with some Lomo CN400 way back at the beginning of June and even though I took it with me most of the time I only managed to finish it last week.

As luck would have it I had bought the Cinestill 2 bath C41 kit to try so this was the first roll in it.

The whole process was pretty easy compared to the usual Tetenal multi bath kit that I have used previously and the results were fine.

It has been ages since I last developed colour negatives and I forgot what a pain it is to spot out and colour correct as I have been sending my C41 stuff to Filmdev lab.

It will be interesting to see how long the chemistry lasts as I shoot far more B&W than colour.

It says that it should develop 24 rolls which makes it very good value for money.

Any way here are the images .. all a bit random as it was shot over weeks rather than days.
