Fuji Superia X-TRA 3 Pack ISO 400 36 Exp. 35mm Film, Total 108 Exposures

Product Information

As per usual, Portra 400 is probably better in this department because of its dynamic range and finer grain, it’s tones are probably a bit better. Dynamic Range As much as Fujifilm is not liked by a number of film shooters, they are respected for their sound business modelling and ability to make decisions that benefit their shareholders. This is all down to Portra having a better exposure latitude. And, while that is definitely true, I had to look closely to find this difference so I’d be happy to say that Fuji has good exposure latitude, it’s just that Portra has great exposure latitude. Fujicolor Superia is a Fujifilm brand of daylight balanced colour negative film introduced ca.1998 primarily aimed at the consumer market, but was also sold in a professional 'press' variant. A key feature at launch was the '4th' cyan colour layer designed to provide improved colour reproduction under fluorescent lighting. Its Kodak equivalent is the Kodacolor (later Kodak) Gold/Ultramax line.

Fujifilm Superia X-TRA 400 36 Exposure Film (Pack of 3)

Superia is a daylight balanced, 400 speed, C-41 color negative film manufactured by our friends from the east, Fujifilm, and on the face of it the film sounds pretty average. To some, that’s enough to pass it over in favor of something with the word “Professional” in the name. But don’t let its average appearance fool you; Superia is a fantastic film that pushes the boundaries of what a consumer-grade emulsion can do. This film makes images that look downright pro, and shooters looking for the lo-fi charm of cheap film will more than likely be disappointed. It’s a thoroughly modern color film that was formulated to handle almost any situation, and as importantly, any level of shooter. The Fujifilm Professional Film Data Guide lists Press 400/800 as having the same product codes as Superia X-tra 400/800; 'CH' and 'CZ'. The photos from the daylight venture to the market were not as successful.While a couple were ok, the white in the sky is quite awful.This film does not handle overexposure very well.Where it was a bit darker though, it had a nice neutral look to it.Olympus OM-1 with F-Zuiko Auto-S 50mm f/1.8 and Fujifilm Superia 400. I used Sunny 16 to meter for this shot. Over-exposing Superia X-Tra. The flexibility claimed by Fujifilm is that it can be shot from exposure index (EI) 800 through to 3200. The film has a medium contrast and saturation, although in many shots the colors came out to be quite muted when scanned. Superia X-TRA 400 has generally cooler tones than Kodak, with more of a focus on blue highlights.

Fuji Superia X-Tra 400 – What’s The Kodak Portra 400 VS Fuji Superia X-Tra 400 – What’s The

A few nights later I met with a photographer friend and we went for a night photo walk in Darling Harbour.Again, I enjoyed being able to shoot a little more freely.I finished off the roll and handed it into my lab the next day.I know what you’re thinking, it’s that meme from the office where she’s like “They’re the same picture” and honestly, there’s very little difference at all. The only thing that I think I can glean from these pictures is that the Superia may have a little more saturation in the magentas (the pink flowers) and possibly a little more green. We love cameras of all types, as well as the trippy, new films. The Darkroom… Lots of experience and lots of love! Olympus OM-1 with F-Zuiko Auto-S 50mm f/1.8 and Fujifilm Superia 400. Inverted by hand with slight colour correction for the film’s blue cast and no adjustments to contrast or sharpening. Overall, it’s safe to say that Superia’s best feature is its dynamic range. This makes it a forgiving film , suitable for plastic toy cameras , old cameras with less-than-reliable shutters, and for metering using the Sunny 16 rule . It is also an excellent film to shoot in high-contrast scenes such as high noon and night photography . It’s also quite commonly held in real shops (when/if they ever open again) which gives one the rare opportunities for spontaneous choice.
