I've been shooting portra 160 in my Rolleiflex 2.8c and doing sidexside portraits with my Fuji XT-4. The Fuji is great, but processed in Cinestill CS6, scanned on an Epson 850 and edited, I think there is visibly more dynamic range and fabulous color in this. And way more character.

PORTRA160 with Rolliflex

I bought a Rolliflex 2.8FX and tested the camera performance with Portra 160 film. The result is a jackpot! The outstanding sharpness of the Rolleiflex lens is accurately expressed. And the soft, natural color expression unique to Portra makes good photos. The Portra series is a film that stands out as a high-end camera.

Finer grain, slightly higher contrast

..and a slightly more subdued color palette VS its 400 speed sister film, making it especially suited for color landscape shots. The price for all this is a lowered exposure latitude, especially towards the lower end.

it's a good film I heard that it is the best film for taking portraits. However, I don't have many portraits, so I use it less than the Portra 400. However, it goes well with landscape photography, so if you want to use high-performance film at a lower price than Portra 400, this product is a good choice.

Love it!

question

some one told me that this Portra 160 color film last longer if stored in refrigerator, is this factual?
Asked by: Anonymous
Refrigerating camera films reduces the photographic effects of long-term storage, but refrigeration cannot reduce the effects of ambient gamma radiation. Naturally occurring gamma radiation increases the D-min and toe densities and also increases grain. Higher speed films are affected more by gamma radiation than lower speed films. If you must store film, a relative humidity (RH) of 50% is recommended by Kodak. For general storage, it is advised to store film at temperatures of 50 degrees Fahrenheit or lower. For more than six months of storage, it is advised to store film at 0 degrees Fahrenheit. If you do freeze your film, allow your film to come up to room temperature prior to loading it in your camera.

What kind of film camera can be paired with this film roll? It's longer and skinner than all the camera film compartments I have found. If you have any recommendations for a camera that would be helpful!

question

If I were using an Argus Seventy Five with this film, about how many exposures could I get from one roll?
Asked by: Anonymous
Both the Argoflex Seventy-Five and Argus Seventy-Five use 620 film not 120 (120 and 620 film is exactly the same size). He have Porta 160 in 620 size, please use this B&H code in our search box: B&H # KOP160620. The cameras make square 6x6 images and will yield 12 frames on a single roll.Here is our complete selection of 620 films: http://bhpho.to/PQQOaH

question

Is this product VC (Vivid color) or NC (Natural color)? Can't find that info in the product photos or specs. Thanks!
Asked by: Debi C.
kodak discontinued vc and nc portra films and now makes a neutral portra. in the end, if you're just going to be scanning it you could achieve the effect of either by raising or lowering saturation and tweaking curves.

question

Thanks to everyone who responded to my question about Portra 160 VC or NC. Can anyone suggest a color negative 120 film size equivalent to Fuji Velvia? I'm looking for vivid, saturated color and fine grain. Is Portra 160 the best bet these days? Thanks!
Asked by: Debi C.
For color neg I would suggest Ektar 100. High color saturation and extremely fine grain. It looks really nice pushed to 400. Portra 160 also looks amazing pushed to 320 or overexpose a stop or so.
