Harman Switch Azure is a fun, playful, creative film. You can expect your colors to ‘SWITCH’ rendering blues as orange, bright yellows as a vibrant azure and reds as hues of purple/blue.
Aimed at the creative photographer Switch Azure welcomes you to a world where pink and orange skies meet cyan bananas and blue strawberries.
Harman Switch films invite you to flip the familiar on its head and turn the everyday into something strange and special. As the colors switch, ordinary scenes become unexpectedly extraordinary.
Iconic red London buses? Now they’re blue. Yellow New York cabs? Not anymore! Your friends? Think Smurfs… or maybe Avatar. Sunsets? Reimagined in cool blues and dreamy purples. From the everyday to the extraordinary, it’s time to switch the world around you.
Harman Switch Azure introduces a radical change to normal color film sensitivity, with two of the three color couplers swapped around and having a differing contrast responses to the individual channels.
This means…
-
Blue light is recorded in the red channel
-
Green Light is recorded in the green channel
-
Red light is recorded in the blue channel
Swapping of the color mapping and contrast response in this way results in surreal and unusual images which break from our normal view of the world.
Harman Switch Azure can be used for any photographic subject with results dependent on ambient lighting conditions, color palette, and exposure. Best results are typically obtained outdoors whilst metering for the mid-tones. On bright days, use of a UV filter will improve clarity.
There are no fixed rules for scanning Azure film, and differing results will be observed depending upon the chosen equipment and method. We have made some suggestions for adjustments to standard parameters. (See later information) White/grey balance can be difficult to establish direct from the scanner, so if desired, further adjustments can be made in your graphics package.
HARMAN Switch Azure is easily processed in C41 photo chemicals. The best overall results are generally obtained at EI/ISO 125 depending on scene brightness and contrast. Some exposure bracketing is advised particularly with high brightness scenes or more challenging exposure conditions.
