    High contrast is inevitable with cross processing.

    sometimes works, sometimes looks shit

    ..I'd say "sometimes it turns out green".
    This has happened to me every now and then in the last 10 years, at different labs, with different film, with different cameras..
    So most of the time it was the "usual" cross processed look - high contrast, vivid, blues go turquois-ish, bright reds go magenta-ish.. and then sometimes all goes very green, and also (on rare occasions) all the things go magenta.
    It's a roulette.

    Last year with CT precisa I also got the "normal" xpro-look, like these -

    and also the greenish look like these -

    Also (assuming you did not scan them yourself) - xpro is difficult to scan / if they (or you) use some kind of auto-colour option, and the negs are already pretty greenish for example, then the auto colour may well even enhance this.

    Anyways I like the first picture a lot!

  • Cheers for the input Tina! Good to know I'm not the only one... Just picked up 5 rolls of Agfa Vista 200 from Poundland (£5!) to have a play with so will see how those turn out.

  • You're welcome.

    So cool that you can get Vista for £1 a roll where you live.
