Kodak makes great film, and Gold Max is one of their best amature films. This film provides maximum versitility for outdoor sports, and for the decently lighted indoor shots. Grain structure is good, holding well up to an 8"x10" print. Best part about this film is the price...I think Kodak and Amazon.com have a real winner here.

We used the film with a cheap camera on our last trip and I truely didn't have my expections too high but all pictures came out nicely. Pictures we took in the evening did not come out as clear (greyish), possibly due to the quality of the camera. All in all - Strongly recommend.

If you have a 35mm SLR camera, it's hard to beat this film. It's plenty fast enough, and the grain is amazing. Even if you have a small, compact camera, while you may have some trouble, this film is great. Make sure you DON'T get it developed at a grocery store or wall-mart type place: this will make any film look horrible. At least go to your local ritz/wolf camera, or use a lab. You'll see the difference. Ultimatly, A superb film.

Kodak Gold film is and has been a great product for years. We have several good point and click film cameras and the battery life is great compared to digital cameras. We get great pictures with this film.

This review is not about the film which is good film. It isn't about the listed supplier above either, which I am unfamiliar with. This review is about the supplier that I purchased my film from on amazon and received today. Unfortunately, the supplier that was here a few days ago is not listed now for the 5 pack of kodak 200 gold. That supplier was Best Deal Supply in Brooklyn, NY The problem is this, in order to make this a 5 pack, this dealer had to use a coupon off of the back of the box and got the 5th roll that way. The 5th roll came loose and unpackaged and undated and just rolling around in the box loose. The box that the 4 rolls had been packaged in had a big square chopped out of the back which also happened to be the place where these rolls had the pull date placed. therefore, I have no idea at all how long the shelf life is that is left on this film. I do not know how the film was stored so it's just a shot in the dark. If I wasn't leaving on vacation in one day and didn't really need the film right now, I would send it back. But since it can be a hassle to track down Kodak film anymore, I don't have any choice but to use the film or be without. It is going to be a very important photo opportunity, one that I may not have again, so I sure hope the film is dated with a good date. I wonder if the fact that they are now missing from amazon, has anything to do with this situation. So just a heads up. If you think of ordering from this supplier you may want to find another or check with them first to see if all of their stock has been cut open in this way. Not at all professional selling.
