Some background and history: 6251 marketed by SFW in the early 1980s and developed only by them via a "movie film" process for prints and slides. We do not have any further information on this particular film stock. Please do your own research. Processing ECN II (or ECN-2) still film. This is a movie film process and requires special care and handling. The film is not comparable to standard, store bought Kodak film. This film is generally reloaded from long roll movie film. It gives professional photographers a chance to experiment with the (then) "film look" and allows cinematographers to compare and contrast different kodak stocks under varying indoor/outdoor lighting conditions without having to bear the expense of shooting and processing expensive movie film rolls. Also, ordinary consumers could afford the mail-order prices. The ASA of the film appears to be modified to suit the shooting and processing under typical 35mm still camera shooting conditions. Seattle FilmWorks, Inc., was a mail order photographic film processing company that sold re-spooled 35mm motion picture film. In 1978, Seattle FilmWorks started selling motion picture film that is processed using Kodak's ECN-2 process. The film was loaded into 35mm film canisters for still photography use, and the company returned an unexposed roll with each order. The company folded in 2000.
