Strength:
I like the colores, more natural less saturated.
Weakness:
price, grain is coarse. If you don't like grainy photos don't buy this. Its good for indoor shots, but not so much bright sunlight. Customer Service none Similar Products Used: Kodak 400 |

Strength:
Hmm...it comes in a neat plastic case that can be used as an impromptu ashtray?
Weakness:
As grainy as a wheatfield in Kansas. I'm not sure what purpose this film even serves. Perhaps it fulfills the "I'm looking for something that will make my subjects look non-dimensional, blanch the fleshtones and give me the overall effect of shooting into a mirror. At night. With my finger covering half of the AF sensor" market. Customer Service The people at Ritz Camera are really nice... Similar Products Used: Kodak Advantix 200 (1000 X better) |

Weakness:
It's GRAINY! It's more expensive than 200 speed and it's absolutely worthless because of it. Don't bother buying 400 speed APS film, it's a waste of your money, because your photos will turn out ugly. If you are shooting in low light, invest in a good flash.

Strength:
Great Photo for indoor
Weakness:
Higher price Although heard a lot of people said the aps film's quality is not as good as 35mm, I still buy an ELPH 2 due to it's handsome looking. it is a difficult for me to choice P&P camera because there are lot of aps P&P camera in the market. After choice the camera... i start wondering what kind of film should i use. because most of photo i took from P&P camera were indoor. so i decided to go with Kodak Advantix 400. the quality of the aps photo is not as bad as i though... guess i havnt have chance to enlarge it... but i found the konda Advantix 400 is more suitable in the indoor environment than outdoor... the 100 or 200 film can do better in the outdoor environment and save a lot of money. Since most of APS camera have Mid-Roll-change function built in. you should always have 100 and 400's film in hand. Similar Products Used: None |

Advantix 400 APS
Strength:
Surprisingly fine grained (about the same as 35mm ISO 400 film for comparable size print -- grain on 12" print is visible but very tolerable). Color saturation is good, but less than 200 or 100 Advantix films. Skin tones are very pleasing and realistic.
Weakness:
Reprints from the local (Honolulu) Kodak "Premium" lab have been less than acceptable at times. Currently my standard film. Sharp, pleasingly colorful, and fine grained. Customer Service Sent email query via Kodak web site but was never answered, not even an auto reply. Similar Products Used: Advantix 200/100 films and Fuji 100/200/400 |

I love this film because it is easy to load and the clarity is excellent.
Weakness:
I have never had a problem with this product. The colors are very vivid. Kodak film is the only film I will use in my cameras. I love the color it gives for it's price. Customer Service Unsure. Similar Products Used: I also tried the Fuji 400 APS. |
