Well, anyway, I just got back from processing them (my tank is a two-roll developing tank) in kodak T-Max dev (70F, 8 minutes), followed by a stop bath and then in Kodafix hardening fixer (70F, 10 minutes - a long time to hopefully clear up the already very, very dense negatives).
I was expecting garbage coming out, but in fact the results were pretty damn good. I don't have access to an enlarger at the moment, so printing them will have to wait until I'm back on campus, but I got basically everything out of the C41 roll and about 14 usable frames out of the E6. The negatives are very dense, but I think that after some burn time tweaking and some contrast adjustment, I should get some nice prints out of them.
Someone gave me a pro-pack of velvia 50 (original stuff) that wasn't stored properly. I shot one roll, had it developed and the results are pretty terrible (no fogging, just a huge magenta shift). If my prints turn out fine from these negatives, I'm going to shoot the rest of the 19 rolls in the pro-pack and process them myself in B+W. It's a fun little project and, hey, it's uber-cheap black and white film!
