Is Kodak Portra 400 Right For Me? - The Analogue Experience Is Kodak Portra 400 Right For Me? - The Analogue Experience

As tempting as it is to follow along with the photographic trends, I’m happy with my work and how I make my images. I love Portra, and I’m not saying that I’ll never buy it again. After all, it’s pretty much the only color negative film in medium format other than Fuji Pro400H – I suppose my hands are tied there. I actually think that Portra 160 does a better job with indoor portraits where as Portra 400 is wonderful outside. As for pushing film, pushing is when you rate the film HIGHER than the box speed and then have it pushed in development to compensate for the underexposure. So pushing Portra 400 one stop (+1) would be shooting it at 800 iso.

FAQS

PAST BYLINES: Gear Patrol, PC Mag, Geek.com, Digital Photo Pro, Resource Magazine, Yahoo! News, Yahoo! Finance, IGN, PDN, and others. Okey dokey guys, that’s it for me. Now go out there, see the world, and document it with this beautiful and vibrant film. The low speed of Portra 160 unfortunately means it doesn’t perform well in low light. However, with external flashes or other lighting accessories, you can achieve that low-light performance with the added bonus of the 160’s fine grain and sharpness! Portra 160 comes in 35mm, 120 (medium format) and large format (4×5”). Even when shooting in difficult conditions such as overcast or a dull winter’s day, Portra 400 holds up pretty well. It’s well know that overcast it’s really the best conditions for color landscape photography, however depending on the scene you can still make it work. If Portra is what you have loaded in your camera, don’t worry about it.

Kodak Portra 400 35mm film review | Digital Camera World

I can see portra as a natural skin tone film whereas Ektar works well as an alternative to higher saturation slide films; I’m expecting higher dynamic range.I find Portra Kodak 160 is the best value of the 3 Kodak Portra films available but I rarely have enough light to shoot Kodak Portra 160 at box speed in the UK. I love the finer grain of Portra 160 and for 35mm I normally prefer it to Portra 400. If I am doing a hot and sunny destination photo shoot (like my trips to Tenerife) I tend to use Kodak Portra 160 as it is the most economical option. With the big cameras like the Hasselblad and Mamiya RZ67 (with their amazing big waist level view of the world) if you get a very attractive model to photograph it’s easy to get trigger happy and shoot off a whole roll of film within minutes! Beware! (Take plenty of film so you don’t run out like I did!) 🙂

Kodak Portra 400 35mm Film Review - My Favourite Lens

At true ISO 400 speed, this film delivers spectacular skin tones plus exceptional colour saturation over a wide range of lighting conditions.

It works because nothing in the image is overdone, yet nothing is bland either. I assume, since I never shot them, that it’s like they took the differing attributes of the NC and VC versions and somehow got them to work together.
