Kodak Professional Portra 400 Film - 36exp

Kodak Portra 400 is an excellent choice when you want the refined look of Portra film with more versatility than ISO 160 film. The faster ISO 400 speed makes it easier to work in changing light, indoors near windows, on cloudy days and during late-afternoon or evening photography. Its combination of natural skin tones, fine grain and wide exposure latitude makes it particularly useful for photographing people, while its balanced colour reproduction also works beautifully for travel, street and documentary photography. Portra 400 is especially attractive to photographers who want a film that is forgiving, flexible and capable of producing polished results without overly saturated colours.

Start at ISO 400: Box speed gives dependable results across a wide range of conditions. Avoid heavy underexposure: Giving the film enough light helps maintain cleaner shadows and more natural colour. Try slight overexposure for portraits: A small amount of extra exposure can produce softer tones and flattering skin colours. Use it for changing light: ISO 400 makes Portra especially useful when moving between bright daylight, shade and indoor locations. Great for handheld shooting: The faster film speed allows higher shutter speeds than Portra 160 in the same light. Excellent for scanning: Well-exposed negatives provide strong tonal information for high-resolution digital scans. Watch very bright highlights: Portra handles highlights well, but careful metering still gives the best results. Develop in C-41: Use standard colour negative processing for correct development.
