Using #patentpending tools we can retrofit any camera to "see" in the spectrum of 3strip Technicolor (circa 1935-1955)

Our specialty is recreating three-strip Technicolor with analog tools and in three-strip there are also unique colored flares (magenta). After we combined period correct lenses with our equipment we were able to have those magenta flares without any digital manipulation. So I’m sure its possible.

They’re an artifact of the combination of the lens coatings used at the time and the way colors were layered in the film negative.
