Strength:
Must load and unload in TOTAL darkness. Not every lab can process this film because infrared sensors in the processing machines will fog this film. Make sure your lab is familiar with this film and is able to turn off these sensors. Many autofocus SLRs (including EOS and Maxxum/Dynax) will fog this film. Best to use a non autofocus SLR (I know most people have AF SLRs these days) Spark Plugs and Ignition Coil repair Weakness:
None . . Purchased: New

Strength:
VERY accurate colors. Smooth tonality. Very easy to print with in the darkroom on account of the natural color relationships.
Weakness:
None in the 2+ years I've been using it. Never seen any of the grain that the previous reviewer mentioned. More than likely he was not exposing it properly. Clean film with accurate color reproduction. Good for people photos. Customer Service n/a Similar Products Used: Fuji NPS, Agfa Portrait 160. |

Grain, Grain, GRAIN!!!! I used four or five rolls of this stuff and that was enough. I take a lot of pictures with blue sky and smooth paint jobs. This film is so grainy it is impossible to enjoy the picture. I've used Fuji Superia X-TRA 400 and it performs better than this stuff. Similar Products Used: Fuji Superia X-TRA |

None apparant The leader in WYSIWYG film technology. Truly, "What You See Is What You Get". Refreshingly honest colors. Conservative and pleasantly accurate. If hot, enhanced colors are to your liking, this is not your film. It seems to love children, tropical birds, flowers, and outdoor sceenery. Shutterfly handles my processing, storage & printing needs exclusively. And the prints come out great. An 11x14 flower arrangement came out beautiful, and this was using the 400 ASA version. Think what your favorite local lab can do with your shots..... Customer Service Not utilized Similar Products Used: Consumer & professional offerings from Kodak, Fuji & Ilford |
