Description
It is a part of the Kodak Portra range of professional quality, daylight-balanced, colour negative films. Well known for producing natural-looking skin tones, with high detail and fine grain. It is also known for its natural warmth, like most Kodak films. Portra 400, in particular, has undertones of orange and yellow. To build upon FILM 101: I wanted to review Kodak Portra 400, my favorite 35mm color film: Where to buy Portra 400 The question now then is, how much does it deserve this simultaneous idolatry and infamy? Is it really that much better than other films? I’m sure some of its popularity is down to people following the crowd too, but to what extent? The new version of Portra 400 was introduced in late 2010. This film essentially combined the old NC (natural colour) and VC (vivid colour) versions while incorporating some technical advances from the Kodak Vision motion picture films. Additionally, Kodak Vision technology makes Portra an excellent film to scan. Whether Portra is in your local 1-hour photo place or pharmacy is less certain. The last time I went in mine, the only Kodak films they had were the consumer ones like Gold 200. Portra 400’s high price and those 5-roll boxes likely have something to do with this.

Portra 400 is an iconic 35mm film that captures the honesty of life's moments with beautiful results every time! Features: Years and years ago, Kodak announced something that would endure for quite a while: Kodak Portra 400. Available in the 120, 35mm, and large formats, the film was and still is incredibly popular with photographers who like shooting portraits. It’s highly valued for its muted tones–which tends to go against much of what digital photography seems to offer straight out of the camera. However, Portra is in use for much more than just this. Lots of photographers use it as their every day film because they just like it. But this tends to be more the thought process of those that shoot 35mm. At 120, you’re getting far less shots per roll and often work to get the best photos you can in one single shot due to higher stakes–even more so than with 35mm. Aside from the T-grain one, I have no idea what those things are and will definitely forget them once I’ve finished writing this. That’s fine, though. As any good salesperson knows, it’s not the features that make people buy. It’s the benefits.
One of the areas where Portra 400 truly shines is in its retention of detail. I know that film already does a fantastic job of not blowing out the highlights in images, but with Portra 400 I have noticed this especially.While I enjoyed the more vibrant results I got from the likes of Kodak’s Ultramax and Ektar films, the paler Portra photographs are very good too.
