Help needed identifying film stock production year based on charge no


Recommended Posts

Hi, 

 

I'm currently digitizing lots of old film from family members, captured in the time period from about 1960 to 1985. Unfortunately most of them are totally unlabelled and unorganized.

Trying to bring some structure into the chaos, I found that many film slides have some manufactorer labelling of type and probably kind of charge numbers (production runs).

  • are there any databases where I could find when film charges where produced (which year)?

Most films are Agfa CNS, Agfa CNS2, Kodak, Fuji

Charge Numbers Agfa CNS (About 1972-1978)

  • 547
  • 661
  • 980
  • 1329
  • 1367

Kodak CP 100 (about 1982-1986)

  • 5074
  • 5075

Fuji HR 100

  • 601

Any hints if somebody has this information, or could inspect his own film stock with known dates for your charge numbers to create a database, are welcome.

My posts focus on technical aspects and leave out most of social grease like „maybe“, „in my opinion“, „I might be wrong“ etc. just add copy/paste all these softeners from this signature to make reading more comfortable for you. Otherwise I’m a fine person which respects you and everyone and wants to be respected.
