What strikes me is that the orange/brown noise in the shots is so prevalent that it becomes part of the overall color tone of the picture and I wonder if that wasn’t intentional. (not the noise, but the color) It gives the shots a bit of a sandy/desert-y look and frankly, I kinda like it. (maybe because that’s how I remember how the shots looked from VHS) But I also remember that they shot the desert scenes through a “panty hose filter” on the lens, which acts a bit like a color filter and which leads me to believe that might have been a deliberate choice for the color tone of the picture.
What I see in Williarob’s and Mike’s cleaned up shots is that by removing the dirt and noise, this color has also been taken completely out and left with a very clean, natural looking shot but I wonder if that’s how the shot’s actually supposed to look, color wise.
Good point. Perhaps something more like this is what they were going for?
rather than this:
Somewhere along those lines, but maybe not as intense.
Could you, by any chance, upload both pictures, TN1 version and cleaned up, so that I could have a go at it?
Thanks 😃
