Cross Processing

Cross processing (sometimes abbreviated to Xpro) is the procedure of deliberately processing photographic film in a chemical solution intended for a different type of film.

* Processing negative color print film in E-6 chemicals, resulting in a positive image but with the orange base of a normally processed color negative
