I loaded an Olympus XA with Lomochrome Purple film and set the ASA to 200.\u00a0 The film is rated at 400 ISO but over exposing is supposed to render darker purples.\u00a0 Shooting it during a mostly dreary winter time may have not been the best idea, perhaps spring when everything here is green would be better.\u00a0 I found that not every image caused the same degree of shift.\u00a0 I believe this is a combination of the metering from the XA and that darker greens seemed to be effected less than yellower greens. Also\u00a0shaded light had much\u00a0less impact on the shift than direct sunlight.

additionally\u00a0blue is shifted to green and while you don’t tend to find that much purple out in the real world it is shifted to green as well.
\nHere is a little chart of how some colours are effected. The original colour is on top with the Lomochrome Purple shifted colour just bellow.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

I have another roll that I will shoot when there is more foliage and new growth as well as using a different camera with a little more control.
