@nosfe Ah, btw, the stocks were mostly consumer formats, since that was our business. So color and black and white reversal...a lot of kodachrome and ektachrome.

@nosfe Honestly, it's been years since I've been eyeing lots of film. I've seen all sorts of patterns, degradation or no. My recommendation is to ask the experts...lots of archivists and film chemistry nerds hang out on the Frameworks experimental film mailing list...that would be the place to ask https://mail.film-gallery.org/mailman/listinfo/frameworks_film-gallery.org

@nosfe All sorts of patterns. Usually the emulsion would crack inward from the edge of the film. I remember seeing it a lot on super8 and 8mm, since that was what we mostly transferred. We didn't get much 16mm to transfer. At an internship at a film archive, I didn't see degradation of this type on any 16mm, since it was stored properly. Vinegar syndrome was the most common problem. When we would see stuff like this, it would be time to either transfer it to video or make a new print.

@nosfe Yes, I have. Sometimes it creates other patterns as well. If you store it in a place where it doesn't have a stable temperature, not too hot or too cold, and stays dry, it will begin to degrade in this way. Mostly it was only on old home movie film. Decades old. I have stuff I shot 20 years ago that I've stored at room temp., and nothing like this has happened.

@nosfe I used to work in the film to video transfer business, and I saw customers' film coming in with this same kind of phenomenon. I always thought it was simply age, or film that was stored improperly..causing the emulsion to degrade, coming off layer by layer. One color layer comes off, then the color of the surface changes. The emulsion in general simply cracks as it comes off. You probably want to buy something like this to clean and strengthen the film https://www.film-tech.com/products/filmguard.php
