Characteristics
Reciprocity failure
No official data available. The manufacturer hasn't published reciprocity specifications for this film.
For long exposures, try starting with a 1.3 exponent (t' = t1.3) as a baseline and bracket your shots. This is a reasonable middle ground that works for many films.
Kodak E-4024: no filter or exposure correction from 1/10,000 to 10 s; at 120 s add CC10R filtration (no exposure change given).
Development times
Ektachrome E100GX is developed in standard E-6 chemistry at 38°C / 100.4°F. The first developer typically runs 6:00 in three-bath kits (check your kit), and push or pull adjustments are made in the first developer only.
