KODAK VISION2 Color Negative Control Strips
Introduction
KODAK VISION2 Color Negative Control Strips (Figure 1)
are intended for the control of Process ECN-2 using the
procedures described in KODAK Publication No. H-24,
Manual for Processing KODAK Motion Picture Films,
Module 1, Process Control.
The first batch of KODAK VISION2 Color Negative
Control Strips is code 5011 for 35 mm, CAT 152 0469 and
code 5012 for 16 mm, CAT 152 0444.

Important Improvements
KODAK VISION2 Color Negative Control Strips
incorporate several important improvements into the control
strips for Process ECN-2.
• A VISION2 emulsion is being used for process control.
The new format is exposed on KODAK VISION2 200T
Color Negative Film 5217, while the former ECN control
strip was exposed on KODAK VISION 200T Color
Negative Film 5274.
KODAK VISION2 Color Negative Control Strips,
Process ECN-2, are packaged in 100-foot rolls containing at
least 120 exposures and a processed reference strip. The
exposures on the roll are spaced at 9.5-inch intervals. Each
exposure has 21 gray-scale steps at 0.20 log H increments
(2/3 camera stop).
The reference strip accompanying each roll was exposed
along with all other control strips; it was then processed
under specified well-controlled conditions. An instruction
sheet enclosed with the package contains process deviation
(correction) factors, if they are required, to determine your
laboratory process aim numbers. A four-digit code number
appearing on the carton, can, control strips, reference strips,
and instruction sheet, identifies each production batch of
strips.
