Kodak Portra-400VC 220 Professional Color Negative (Print) Film (ISO-400) USA
The best photographs are often the ones you never saw coming. Because there is so little warning, you need a film that can handle a wide variety of available light and motion, indoors or out, without losing subtleties in color, sharpness, and skin tone. Kodak Professional Portra 400-speed films give you that flexibility. You can freeze the action, stop down for extra depth of field, or pick up added detail in shadow areas.
In addition to all the benefits of a faster speed, you also get strikingly fine grain. So you can shoot with confidence whether you choose Portra film NC for natural color or Portra 400VC film for vivid color.

Comments about Kodak Portra-400VC 220 Professional Color Negative (Print) Film (ISO-400):
It basically is a good film for many purposes and it is still in 22o roll . I am satisfied with the film but the grain could be a bit smaller but you give one thing up to gain another

Comments about Kodak Portra-400VC 220 Professional Color Negative (Print) Film (ISO-400):
I've tried lots of others, but I keep coming back to the VC 400. The colors are incredible, and the quality of photos that I get by using VC in my Mamiya makes for a 'wow' moment that I never get tired of.

Comments about Kodak Portra-400VC 220 Professional Color Negative (Print) Film (ISO-400):
i used portra 400vc for outdoor still lifes and portraits. the color is so warm and deep. it adds a romantic lush element to any photograph. color is consistant and warm, which i prefer. and grain is fine enough for large prints. however, base is not thick enough for printing more than 15 seconds. sometimes i need a glass negative carrier for longer printing time.

I use this film in my wildlife and nature photography. The animals almost come alive and leap off of the prints. Digital cannot compare with this traditional medium and format.

Comments about Kodak Portra-400VC 220 Professional Color Negative (Print) Film (ISO-400):
I love this film, fine grain and the high speed means you don't have to use a tripod as much as you would with a slower film. The color looks beautiful, vivid, but not so saturated that things look fake.

Comments about Kodak Portra-400VC 220 Professional Color Negative (Print) Film (ISO-400):
There's something intangible about film image that are defferent from virtual digital images.
This film brings out just a lettle bit more of that feeling for me. It enbodies the true essence of film photography. I hope Kodak don't let this die!
