Paul, excuse m' lurkin' and smirkin'- regular negative film has a contrast
mask, that red-orange color. Kodak does make a variety of print materials-
including, if I recall, a 35mm positive tranfer film-. It has an emulsion
balanced to print out Vericolor negs, but I think any color negative film
will make a good transparencie with proper filtration... Check the Kodak
website...
