It's been years since I tried the stuff from RGB Labs... A professional movie
cameraman told me about it... what they do is take the basic neg stock as you
have mentioned, then print it onto positive film and/or make prints... The color
correction happens in the lab... I always knew it was tungsten stock, but that
you could shoot it without filters and the lab would correct it... Some people
like it... I prefer Kodachrome annd Velvia and Reala...
