Kodak Professional Portra 800 Color Negative Film (35mm Roll Film, 36 Exposures)
Key Features
  • Daylight-Balanced Color Negative Film
  • ISO 800/30° in C-41 Process
  • Fine Grain, High Sharpness & Edge Detail
  • Vivid Color Saturation, Low Contrast
Kodak's Professional Portra 800 is a high-speed daylight-balanced color negative film optimized for use in difficult lighting conditions. It has a nominal sensitivity of ISO 800/30° along with a notable underexposure latitude for effectively pushing to ISO 1600 with maintained quality and extended highlight and shadow detail. Vivid color saturation and low overall contrast contribute to pleasing skin tones and neutral color accuracy, and a micro-structure optimized T-GRAIN emulsion renders a fine grain structure with high sharpness and edge acutance. Kodak's proprietary advanced development accelerators and antenna dye sensitization also offer enhanced scanning and enlarging performance. Portra 800 is very well-suited to photographing moving subjects and working in low-light conditions while maintaining true color reproduction.

question

I'm planning to visit the grand canyon which film will be better portra 400 or 800?
Asked by: Emmanuel G.
if any of the two: portra 400. You will need dynamic range in Grand Canyon , which the 400 is better and 800 is to fast anyway. I would use Ektar 100 there.

question

Is there anyway to develop films at home nowadays ? Scan the results directly through a small film scanner or something? Or it has to be developed by professional lap
Asked by: Bader
You can process and develop black and white film at home. Though it takes materials, safety, and care to great a space for it. As far as scanning goes I would not recommend a small cheap scanner. The quality of the images would be poor and not worth it. It also takes slot of time to properly scan negatives. I use a Epson 750 for scanning. Though that is an investment. If film photography is a hobby I recommend just paying someone to process and scan your film. The time and resources may not outway the costs. Hope that helps.

question

I'm looking to shoot this film for a concert would you recommend this for lowlight situations?
Asked by: Anonymous
Hi, I have not used this film yet, I froze it for later use. Whatever film you choose, the slower the better. I would always use a flash with a Tele-Extender on the flash unit for better range of Flash coverage in lower light situations.Possibly consider 400 or even 200 speed Film for better Color Saturation and lower light sensitivity. Hope this helps!!

question

Does it work well to be pushed and or pulled? If so how many steps?
Asked by: Chris P.
I would not pull this film, rather take the cheaper 400 then. For push, I was not really happy with the results. But maybe my pushing was not done well from the lab.
