Beautiful colours, but not perfect

I bought this film as I was looking for something that could replicate the look of old Agfacolor of the 30's and 40's and I definitely think Washi X does this well.

I really like the results I got from my first roll, shot on a very sunny winter's day with an old Barnack.

The problem I had with this film is that the first 2 shots had significant leaks on them, and the following 4 shots had mid-to-slight light piping. I had loaded the camera indoors in a lit room, though I imagine this is pretty standard as most folk won't be loading their cameras in a darkroom/bag. It's maybe a combination of how I loaded it and how the film is produced (small company, I believe hand-spooled). Therefore, if you're looking for technical perfection then this film probably isn't for you, but if you're ok with a few wacky results in the first frames then give it a go.

Love it

Love the colour gradients in the photos. Good for sunlight so the colours pop a lot more great for showing a good contrast between lights and darks between the colour.

Warm tone!

Ones of my go to films when I know I want to give my photos more warmth and red undertones!!

Good for gloomy autumn days

I took this stock with me for a stroll on a mostly overcast autumn day and I think these are the conditions in which it performs best. The couple of pictures I have taken on a different day (bright, sunny, and blue sky) don't look as good, with the red undertone too overpowering. Could be very good for a more artistic kind of shooting

Pleasantly surprised!

Really wasn't too sure what to expect from this film, however pleasantly surprised at how they turned out. This film certainly performed better in good favourable light conditions

the thinest base, inconsistent, some ok results; pricey

My strong criticism is the misleading advertising across the board; you cannot be sure what you are actually buying; some research tells me that this appears to be a re-spooled Kodak Aerocolor just like Flic Electra which behaves very much like an old frozen film, washed out colours, not very pleasing greens and from roll to roll the results are clearly nor consistent. One certainly cannot be sure how old the film in the can actually is. The base is extremely thin, it makes home development a bit of a challenge. Handling during scanning is not too bad but you cannot return a colour into a faded film incapable of capturing the usual high dynamic range of saturated hues that we know from quality slide films. I had bought this film in the past and tried developing at home to play with both C41 and E6 but managed to damage the film badly a couple of times just getting it on and off a tank spool; the roll I bought from AW actually performed tolerably in E6 for what it was; C41 can turn into a hit and miss and costly experiment. The Rollei crossbird in its day was a consistent experimental film compared; this one cannot ..
due to its origin; Definitely NOT worth the price tag.

Great summer holiday results

Popped this into a little point and shoot for a sunny weekend in Barcelona, and the results were surprisingly great. Three frames came out with some strange colours (potentially light leaks?) but everything else looked well exposed with vibrant colour. I'm looking forward to trying another roll, to see if this was a fluke

A film that feels like summer

Its warm tones and rich colour give this film a real lazy summer afternoon feeling. The lack of an orange mask infuses a halycon quality without loosing a sense that, whilst it is based on old chemistry, it's a film for now. I really love this film, especially on bright spring / summer days. (Whilst it advertised as C-41 or E6 I have had it developed as C-41 so far)

excellent

experimental small project, trying out filmwashi, and wanted to see what the film was like, liked the idea of a 50's vibe and was not disappointed. great film, and was a fun project with washi. great quality images and texture. great depth of colour. location was at Liverpool, using my old Olympus trip 35.

All round warm

Honestly a surprisingly decent film for both night-time and daytime shots, under the right lighting conditions it makes warm tones absolutely pop!

I found myself in Yarmouth for work, and with no other film I accepted that the photos might turn out disappointing, but it just highlighted the reds more! I'm by no means an expert, so in the right hands this film could look stunning.

Must try on something a little more imaginative

This is another great film you've never heard of.

Even messing about taking pics of cameras hanging off a door against an old jacket you can see how sharp and grain-free it is.

I'll try it on something a bit more grown up when that stops raining.

I do need to get out more.

Very fun film

Had a lot of fun with washi x and have used it many times now - always reacts interestingly to different exposure levels.
