I use this film for both nature photography and portraits. The grain is extremely fine, and the color rendition is beautiful, yielding wonderful skin tones and beautiful, crisp greens. Definitely a professional quality film.

A great option for 120 medium format photography, this film has rich colors and sharp images. Using ISO 100 film is relatively grain free and beautiful clarity.

I got a box of this film for fathers day and I have shot a few rolls of it so far and I really love the quality of the shots I have made with it, but there is a problem. The film tends to produce images with a blue cast if you underexpose. This can be fixed before you print with filters or digital manipulation, but it is something that you need to know going in. Once you correct the blue cast, the colors and tones are excellent, and this film has that film quality that makes you remember why you decided to shoot that photo with film not digital.

this film does well even in situations that usually call for an ISO 400 film. also handles over-exposure well. i wouldn't recommend this film for night or dark indoor shots with flash if you're using a camera with fixed shutter speed and aperture (like a Holga), but daylight shots always come out great.

I bought my daughter a camera that requires real film, then couldn't find the film anywhere--even at specialty stores. The film is great, the pictures are fun, and Amazon is any easy places to get it quickly.

Exceptionally nice film. Lovely colors, capable of great subtlety, reasonable speed, very fine grain, scans beautifully. I use it for landscapes and photomacrography, for which it is wonderful. If you are used to slide film, try this, I bet you'll like it (a lot).

This film goes beyond the resolving power of most lenses! Some older Nikons, Hasselblads,Leicas
and Zeiss lenses (high end stuff) might take full advantage of it. My Yashica Mat 124 80mm lens does a good job with it. I love this stuff. Brilliant scenics. Yummy color. You can get it in 35mm too.

A great film... however, in a few situation of diminishing light (dusk), overexposure is a good insurance policy. I should have been aware that the light was fast moving way off the mark and unlike other films, over compensation would have been best... my fault more than the film. That was just a few shots out of bunches more that were great. Sharpness... lets be real... Tons of sharpness and detail! There has been many discussions in film forums about "pink or purple cast shadows", but I found a few situations were my FILM SCANNER was not dealing with the film well. Minor adjustments seemed to fix this. I'll be stocking up on this stuff again soon.

You don't get as much of a exposure latitude as you do with Kodak's Portra line of films (the newer ones) but it is still a very nice film. Some say it is not good for portraits because of how it renders skin tones but it did a good job in my opinion.

This product came within a short amount of time of placing my order. Everything was as described in the product description. I have used two rolls and had them developed since my purchase, and I have no complaints.
