I'm in the middle of scanning some 6x6 negatives that my late father
took back in the mid to late 60's, possible very early 70's. It's
color film, I assume C41 process, or a predecessor to C41 (has the
same orange tint, scanner color-corrects it pretty well). The only
marking on the margin of the film is "Kodak Safety Film."

Anyone have any ideas about what kind of Kodak film it might be? Just
a simple curiousity question. Compared to current consumer color
films, the colors are quite muted. And I discovered that scanning it
at 3200 DPI just shows the aberration of the lens and the film grain
that much clearer. :-)
Knowing my dad, it was probably a pretty mainstream consumer film at
the time, and processed at the local dime store, or the Dutch
equivalent.

Hopefully, I'll have a gallery up soon of pictures taken before I was born.
