Popular Photography magazine talked about this. Without looking it up, from
memory, the deal is:
When you underexpose and over develop Ektachrome 100 it goes magenta. (That
would be a push.)
Instead of making a new emulasion that's rated at 200, they just make special
batches of Ektachrome 100 that are biased to cancel
the added magenta. Technically I suppose it's really "green E100". The only
way it makes sense to use it is to expose it AT 200
and specify "+1 processing".
Don't shoot it normally and drop it off at the drugstore. You'll get
underdeveloped, green transparencies.
