Kodak Portra 400 120 Roll Film Professional 5 Pack

Product Information

While this means the 120 film is slightly less forgiving of wide exposure latitudes, the professional results when you nail the exposure will blow you away! Additionally, Ilford HP5 Plus 400 has a formula that will respond well to push processing. Film speeds up to EI 3200/36 are achievable. Ilford Microphen developer is a good choice for push processing HP5. The developer will help hold good shadow detail and well-separated mid-tones with sharp grain. Find out more about push processing in our Guide To Pushing And Pulling Film. UK-based film manufacturer Ilford Photo has released its budget Kentmere films in 120 format for the first time. Outstanding scanning results with finer grain and an emulsion overcoat specially designed for scanners, Portra Films reproduce beautifully.

Superb colour in mixed lightno matter the lighting conditions, even under fluorescent, you can expect beautiful, natural colour. As you can see, the first few frames came out wonderfully, but a few of them were a tad too dark, exposing poor exposure readings or the fear of low shutter speeds and blurry images. Eiffel Tower from the boat – Paris Paris buildings on the side of the Seine River Paris Bridges from the cruise boat – bit of scratching here but believe was due to processing! Sunset cruise – exposure was much too dark Ultimately this is a premium film with very powerful chemistry, and the photos it will produce for you are going to be beautiful

Specification

So, being now more into medium format photography I was very pleased to see that Analogue Wonderland have been having a very good promotion on 120 size Kodak Tri-X 400 in boxes of 5 rolls. The characteristics of the film are much the same as they are for the 35mm equivalent versions. Kentmere 100 will have finer grain and higher contrast and sharpness while the 400 edition will own the grainier end of the spectrum and lower contrast. Kentmere 100: They are subject to the same rigorous processes as the company’s ILFORD branded products and are an excellent entry point into the world of analogue film photography. Kentmere Pan 100 and 400, already available in 24 and 36 exposure 35mm cassettes and 35mm bulk length rolls, offer some of the best value films on the market.

Kentmere Pan 100 and 400 are already available in 24 and 36 exposure 35mm cassettes and 35mm bulk length rolls. Aimed at the budget-conscious photographer, these offer some of the best value films on the market. We are now pleased to be able to offer that same level of quality, value, and consistency to all medium format photographers.” An example of Kentmere 400, provided by Ilford Photo (Pic: Matt Parry) High image quality: Kodak Portra 400 film is known for its fine grain and excellent colour reproduction, which makes it ideal for capturing high-quality images. The new Portra 400 Film is the world's finest grain high-speed colour negative film. At true ISO 400 speed, this film delivers spectacular skin tones plus exceptional colour saturation over a wide range of lighting conditions. For years, professional photographers have preferred Kodak Portra Films because of their consistently smooth, natural reproduction of the full range of skin tones. In that same tradition, the new Portra 400 Film is the ideal choice for portrait and fashion photography, as well as for nature, travel and outdoor photography, where the action is fast or the lighting can't be controlled. The Kentmere range is owned and manufactured by HARMAN technology and follows the same high-quality processes that are used to make all ILFORD PHOTO films and papers.Tone and contrast is very good and grain just enough to give the images the character that I look for in an analogue image. This experiment has certainly encouraged me to use this film again as long as it isn’t priced a lot different to its’ competitors. Kentmere 400 provides more flexibility in terms of lighting and exposures available to the photographer. This speed is helpful during the shorter and often rainier (UK based) winter days. It’s also great if you want faster shutter speeds in general, even if the day is bright. For the Zeiss Ikon Nettar, in anything less than clear skies and sunny days, it is helpful to have the extra speed given that the brightest aperture on this camera is F6.3. It’s great to have the Kentmere option now in medium format for cost-conscious photographers. At a time where spending is being reined in across many budgets, the film is well positioned to offer a great value to those that still favour the larger negative over the economy of 35mm. Also, as film photography continues to expand to new beginners who want to experiment or learn, having companies investing in film that supports learning and experimentation without breaking the bank is very encouraging. Rinse : Now that the film has been fixed, tap water is fine to use (I do my best to keep it the same temp as everything else). I usually fill up and drain the tank three times, then let it sit under the faucet for another four to five minutes.
