• Fucking love the stuff, no examples to hand unfortunately but I actually much prefer it to porta 400 but if you're gonna pull it to 160 I feel portra 160 looks just as good in the range.

  • Cool. Yeah, I have mixed feelings about portra in general - it suits some things better than others and the colours with Fuji just seem to work better overall, especially with landscape stuff. Clues in the name I guess!

  • Same, I love shooting the 160 sort of like a more tame ektar. The 400 is great for portraits but can leave other scenes feeling a bit flat or dull. pro400h manages to do both well.

    800 bugs me because it's still daylight balanced.

  • Fuji just seem to work better overall

    To be fair I did not shoot a lot of Fuji Pro 400H, just a handfull of rolls, but definately wouldn't say it's better overall compared with Portra.
    I always found it very cool. Not nice with skin tones.
    I made kind of a mental note, "use this film when the weather is bad".
    So yeah I guess it's pretty good for landscape-stuff in the UK ;-)
    It's also even more expensive than Portra over here, so I hardly ever buy it.

    I just found a store that sells 36 rolls of this "Kodak Ultramax 400".
    Sounds pretty shit, but pictures I've seen so far are nice, so let's see.
