Fuji Superia X-TRA 3 Pack ISO 400 36 Exp. 35mm Film, Total 108 Exposures

Product Information

If you are unsure how your expired film has been stored, or the quality of the emulsion, over exposing by 1 stop per decade is a good place to start with. But, as with every internet rule of thumb, it is not 100% accurate so always take it with a pinch of salt. This is the combined art and science of shooting expired film!

Kodak Portra comes in 160, 400, and 800 speed versions, though shooting with all three varieties of Portra would just have been not feasible for me in these comparisons. That shouldn’t matter too much as these films were designed to be extremely similar at different speeds. Though if I were to do it again, I might have chosen Portra 400 as that would make things more easy to directly compare with Fuji Pro 400h. But, as it is, there will be more commonalities than differences between the various Portra films.Editor’s Note : One of the most common questions I’m asked is one that’s very difficult to answer. People who’ve never shot film want to know where to start. To find the answer to this question demands that we ask and answer other questions; what type of photography do you want to shoot, in what lighting conditions, and with what camera? To help people choose the film that’s right for them, we publish our Film Profile series. But which film is best for a beginner? In this article, Josh makes the case for a fantastic film from Fujifilm- Superia 400, and shows how this film propelled him through the early days of his photographic journey. – James] Their precision beats and the serious demeanor with which they drummed was mesmerizing, and the crowd’s attention was firmly fixed on the line of drummers instead of the fact that we were getting scored on. The floodlights of the stadium served to illuminate them perfectly. I pushed my way to the front of the crowd and snapped only one picture of the scene, trusting my FG’s program mode to pull through.

As with any film, scanning prints may lead to some color discrepancies. I have an Epson scanner and found that the scans had a heavier magenta cast than the original images. It was easy to balance the colors in Photoshop, but I think the combination of the film having vibrant warm tones made the scan act up more than other documents would. Developing Fuji Superia 400Fuji Superia 400 and Kodak Portra 400 are relatively similar in terms of stats, with the main difference being that Portra has an acetate film base while Superia has a cellulose triacetate film base. Portra has a finer grain than Superia, resulting in sharper images. I handed my Fujifilm X-M1 camera to my daughter, Joy, and told her that she could change the settings to whatever she wanted them to be—you might remember that she created the Winter Blue film simulation recipe. She used the camera to capture a bunch of pictures; afterwards, when I reviewed the images, I was very impressed with the look that she created. I asked her why she chose these settings, and she answered that she had hoped to capture some cherry blossoms, and it was initially overcast when she dialed in the settings, and she thought that it might work well for that. Crumbs? Maybe. But, as an Ultramax shooter who just wants reliable access to film, I’ll take them. Update: Datasheet comparison I like the exactness of XP2 over HP5 PLUS, which I found to be quite “foggy.” I especially like XP2 to render directional light for portraits, and I’m happy overall that I switched from HP5 to XP2 so soon in my workflow. I like to find what works for me and then continue to make it work for me until I can use it in all areas. I experienced this when working on my compositional style, and hope that my experience with film is no different. Superia is more worth it because at the time of writing it is a good bit cheaper. Is it worth using it on holiday? Probably. Is it worth using it for some semi-important portraits? Probably also.

These days I shoot C-41 color, still some Kodak 400 HD in my lead bag in my freezer. That was a consumer film that was better in definition than any other Kodak offerings other that the Ektars. I also process my own film; this is especially important in this new era of no one hour photos or drug store minilabs. This mirrors last year’s rebranding of Fujicolor C200 as Fujicolor 200 in the US. This film was also made in the US and analysis of its datasheet showed it was exactly the same as Kodak Gold 200 – including Kodak’s terms for colours, rather than Fujifilm’s.McGee, Jim.

Fujifilm will help you achieve vibrant greens and strong and beautiful blues, and a lot of people love that look. The film is ISO 400 you can take it outside, shoot it indoors, use lighting- take it all over the place! And across a roll you will notice the lovely sharpness and Fuji's famous cool tones.

For those who are new to film, latitude is a term we use when we’re discussing how over or under exposed a film can be and still be “pleasant”. Of course, this score is not perfect and a lot of it has to do with taste. Many of these films suffer from color shifting when over- or under-exposing, which some find more appealing than others with certain films. But these scores represent the average latitude values I’ve been able to research from other reviewers, or as reported by the film manufacturers. A higher score here means a film is more flexible and forgiving. Street photographers, for example, my prefer a more forgiving film as conditions are constantly changing while shooting. Whilst a landscape photographer who is taking their time might be ok with a film that requires more precise attention to appropriate exposure values.This is all down to Portra having a better exposure latitude. And, while that is definitely true, I had to look closely to find this difference so I’d be happy to say that Fuji has good exposure latitude, it’s just that Portra has great exposure latitude. Of all the films out there, I believe that Superia honestly could serve as a great everyday film for so many photographers. It’s affordable price point combined with good quality makes it very attractive. In ISO 200, 400, and 800 you’re bound to get some of the best colors. But with 1600 you’ll be subjected to a fair amount of grain. You have to come to expect this though as even Fujifilm Natura 1600 was grainy. I’m going to miss natura, but I really like Superia 1600 if you overexpose it. In fact, I’d recommend giving it more than an extra stop of light.
