Portra 400 / Fuji Pro 400H Comparison 

Mark my words, we’ll see Fuji stop all film production in the next 4-5 years. They’ve already publicly stated their intent to throw all their weight into their medical and pharmaceutical arms.

This was brutal

I came here to write this!

LMAO!!!

This is his channel

Tank you

PSA, bruh.

Hello again old friend

@@ModernAtomX hello amigo

I appreciate you a lot for this

Nicely done

Big grins, he even makes herpes funny.

I think the neutral tones work best with Instax and Provia 100f but seems to be more situational with color negative. Almost always found myself wanting Portra over 400h in like 98% of situations. Still sucks that it's gone and even worse is that it's being price gouged despite Fuji confirming there was enough supply for awhile.

Idk man. I don't think it's just wedding photographers...I genuinely prefer the Fuji tones over Portra, and I mainly shoot portrait and editorial. It's also retains colours so much nicer when overexposing.

@@lanycera of course not only wedding photographers :) they just benefited more than others. I also prefer Fuji's more true to life look preferring Superia 400 for my colour work back in the day.

@Linda Ultramax 400 may be the closest thing these days. Not as heavy a yellow/warm cast as most Kodak stock. Fuji C200 is now manufactured in the USA so almost certainly made in the Kodak factory and some do believe it's just Gold 200 inside. Yet to see enough results or used it myself to determine what is like exactly.

was the KKK photographed on 400H or something?

Ektar handles darker skin tones much better than 400H. At least in my experience in the studio

Ektar and Pro Image (sadly only 35mm…) are infinitely better than Portra--160 is the only speed that holds a torch

It’s more nuanced than that. In terms of exposure, dan’s point was more about black and white high iso films. When you shoot film, the light causes a chemical reaction which varies depending on the amount of light and the film negative. Other factors include development chemicals and temperature. So for color film, shooting portra, for example, one or two stops over exposed increases saturation and provides a better rendition for portraits. It isn’t simply about increasing the exposure of the image. The reason why so many people are confused by Dan’s video is because the factors are so varied in the outcome of a film photo that simply reducing it to: over exposing = better, doesn’t explain it well enough (not that he said that)

No, overexposing means exposing for shadows in this case with film latitude preserving highlights.

Superia Premium definitely feels like a solid choice. Doesn't have the green casts like regular superia does but has grain similar to Pro400h. Too bad it's only sold in Japan for some reason

seconded: Kodak T-Max 100 vs Ilford FP4 plus

@@briglnai a better comparison would probably be delta 100 seeing as FP4 is a classic cubic grained film (like Tri-X, HP5).

I can't even remember his na- I mean film speed

I got 13 rolls in my fridge, still exists for me..... for now :'(

@@quasarcreator Me too ! 4 packs of 5 rolls in the fridge :-) and still good till 2023

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN

So, you're an Oregon Transplant?

swagg.

Unfortunate but true. I try to make those film shots count

kind of obvious

I’ve made one, feel free to check it out.

maybe Fuji C200 is worth a shot
