I had read the rather nasty review, I am hoping that in the papers at Syracuse there might be extra notes on the film.

Re using the chroma from other sources, that can work, it is mainly an alignment issue that is a hassle, but can be overcome, and the results can be very good. The lower resolution of the LD chroma isn't as big a problem as you might think, our eyes aren't very sensitive to colour resolution, and you can scale the chroma before applying it.

I want to stress again that the colours on the scan are not the correct colours. I rescanned it to maximise the colour response of each colour layer of film, so it is horrendously unbalanced, but it should have enough colour recovered to make a colour correction possible. It is certainly easier to do it from this scan than from the original more pink scan.

The colourbars and greyscale bars are quite handy in the control room shots to know if the colour is still present.
