Interesting! I just finally finished a fill of Sailor Kobe Taisanji Yellow, which is in the same color territory under conditions that optimize saturation. That is to say, it is much paler than these images when used in a narrow nib and on the usual fountain-pen friendly papers, but in wider nibs and on more absorbent papers it is a striking gold.

 

What pen and paper did you use for this comparison?

Paper is Rhodia dotpad n.18, 80gsm, pen is a goulet B nib used as a dip pen on a dip pen holder for the first half of the page, and a broad oblique Leonardt 2.5mm for the rest.

      Thanks for the info (I only used B&W film and learned to process that).   Boy -- the stuff I learn here!  Just continually astounded at the depth and breadth of knowledge in this community! Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

It just wasn't likely to have been Kodachrome.  It would have been the films I referred to as "other color films." (Kodachrome is not a generic term for color film.

      @Ceilidh -- Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color, not just B&W like I learned to process.  Whether they were doing the processing of the film themselves in one of the darkrooms, or sending their stuff out to be processed commercially?  That I don't actually know, but had always assumed that they were processing their own film.

      Kodachrome 25 was the most accurate film for clinical photography and was used by dermatologists everywhere. I got magnificent results with a Nikon F2 and a MicroNikkor 60 mm lens, using a manually calibrated small flash on a bracket. I wish there were a filter called "Kodachrome 25 color balance" on my iPhone camera.
