About this deal

This medium-speed, colour negative film is perfect for portraits and well-lit scenes, producing natural skin tones and rich, vibrant colours.

Either way, finding good and interesting light is going to be a huge step in capturing a great photo.With a fine grain structure and excellent sharpness, this film is a favourite among professional and amateur photographers alike. Single rolls of Kodak Portra 400 professional grade 120 roll colour negative roll film for medium format cameras. If you shoot mid-day in full sun, the brightest parts of a scene and the darkest shadows have a massive contrast making for harsh light and unfavorable looks in my opinion.

According to Kodak Alaris, the Portra 400 is the world’s finest grain high-speed color negative film. This film essentially combined the old NC (natural colour) and VC (vivid colour) versions while incorporating some technical advances from the Kodak Vision motion picture films.

Originally there were two variants of Portra: 'Vivid Colour' and 'Natural Colour' but a technical update in 2010 made the difference redundant with a new and improved film.

I should have metered for the highlights and the midtones and used the settings somewhere between the two. Like Portra 160, the film was formerly available in “Natural Color” (NC) and “Vivid Color” (VC) variations, before being updated in 2010, when both were replaced with “New Portra”. I think the Portra 400 has an incredible exposure latitude - it does well indoor under low exposure, and superbly outdoor under high exposure. Whether you’re using an external light meter, or the one built in to the camera, you need to adjust the ISO on it so you get accurate readings.Overall, Kodak Portra 400 film is a high-quality film that is perfect for photographers who want to capture beautiful, lifelike images with natural skin tones and excellent colour reproduction. Kodak Portra 400 is one of the world’s most popular colour negative film and is perfect for both studio and location shoots. It’s limitations in my opinion are when you push it since there can be a little too much saturation, making darker skin tones turn a bit orange rather than a nice brown. Not to mention its superb exposure latitude, making it a good choice not just for "professionals" as seems to be implied from the name of the line that this film is a part of (ie. Kodak Portra 400 Professional Film is great for commercial photographers and amateurs alike and is a fast film for poor or low light conditions.
