Product Information

These image qualities made Portra a favourite among wedding photographers in the days before most of them went digital, and among new film shooters in the more recent resurgence of analogue photography.

Whether you’re new to film photography, or a seasoned skeptic who’s loyal to another type of film, we’ve come up with 10 reasons to try shooting Ultramax 400.I’m not going to say any of the above films are better than the others because it’s all down to personal taste and how you like the representation of the specific scenes you shot with each. But I will say the image qualities engineered into Portra 400 with portraits in mind translate very well to the street. Also, there will be a 30-minute pre-show that I invite you to join. So if you have a little time before the show, even if it’s only five or ten minutes, please tune in as we showcase some of your pictures and have an informal chat with the audience.

She lives on a large ranch in rural Oklahoma. Pawhuska was barely on the map before Ree became famous—now it’s still barely on the map, although it certainly has seen a significant resurgence, and it can become quite busy with tourists.

Though Tri-X can be processed to be a stellar low-light film, Kodak’s T-max P3200 is undoubtedly the company’s flagship super speed film. It’s actually an 800-1000 ISO film, but is made to be pushed for use in low-light. It has fast become a favorite of the CP staff owing to its super-speed and surprisingly strong exposure latitude and tonality. It’s the same attributes that make it good for both groups; the flexibility, the reliability, and the consistency it brings with its image quality and qualities.
