I just scored a few rolls of this stuff. At least 20 years old, but apparently fridge-stored the whole time (sorry, no desert fresh this time 😁). I assume this is a rebrand? Does anyone know if it's Kodak/Fuji/Lucky/etc?

Well. Google tells me that it's not a rebrand, but rather Konica's in-house developed emulsion. The Konica Minolta branding indicates that it was produced after the merger in 2003, but before film production stopped altogether in 2006. My friend who gave me the rolls said they were about 20 years old, so he pretty much nailed it! 😁

It's probably good.
On those, if I remember, the base is an odd color, so scanning is a bit more involved.
But once you get it right, the colors are great. From memory, the reds really pop out. But the last roll I shot was a few years ago, so my memory could be a bit foggy.

I have a bulk roll of 4cm Konica 160 that expired in 2006, cold stored. It still produces great colors.
