NEW FILM // Kodak Gold 120!!!

Kodak's classic Gold film in now available in 120 format and we are so excited. This video compares Kodak Gold to Kodak Portra 400. Can you see the differences?

Gold has more contrast and saturation than the Portra lines of film. We'd love to know what you think.

Out of all the gold videos I have seen today, this one was my favorite. It also seems that the medium format Gold does have a little less of the Yellow tint I find with the 35mm version. Of course, everything looks good in that California light :)

Thank you so much! This is exactly what I was looking for. Portraits of people and comparing Gold 200 vs Porta. You're the real MVP!!!

The colors of Kodak Gold are amazing ! I love that film stock. Please to see Kodak making new rolls!

[JakobInFocus]

I think you really do see that the Portra 400 is a professional film with great colors etc. That said, in some of the harsh light shots I actually preferred the Kodak Gold because of the more pinkish tones compared to the sometimes greenish ones of the Portra.
Great comparison and video! Thanks!

So excited. I stocked up on Portra 400/800 and chucked it in the freezer before the price hike and now it looks like I'll have to pick up a brick of this when it comes out.

I hope film gets more popular because I am going to put my good old Rollei back on the shelf. Roll of 120 film, processing, S&H cost me now over $30 for 12 pics. DSLR is it for me

Just shot my first 2 rolls of gold and can't wait to see the results!

I love Gold 200 as my walk around film, especially when shooting during the summer in Manhattan. I can't wait to get my hands on a pro pack or two and spend a warm day in the city!

1. Absolutely fantastic video comparing Portra and Gold at 120. Really valuable video for anyone who wants to know what Gold offers.
2. Great explanations of what you're metering for and why. I didn't understand just how much of a variable metering could be during a shoot outdoors.

Got a new sub out of me

Dear film supply club, please update more film video, this one about Kodak Gold 120 is my favorite video on YouTube, looking forward your update !

So now Kodak is selling us a non-professional 200 speed film for the price they used to sell us a 400 speed professional film, and we're supposed to be excited and grateful for it. Clearly Portra is never going to be anywhere near affordable again, and that's a huge shame.

Can't wait to try out my new roll of gold 120! Loved the video

[CARLA]

Thank you! Very nice to see the comparisons.

I like Kodak Gold and it's great to see it finally in 120 format.

[mariofazioli]

Love everything about the video, how you explained the difference of the 2 films, perfect location, i am so happy that we all have another choice in the huge comeback of film, and of course lots of kudos to your lovely model. Thanks CANADA

I will certainly be adding this stock to the fridge. I like Portra 400, particularly when over exposed for those pastel tones. For a more saturated and contrasty look I use Lomography CN400. So good to have options as a 120 shooter.

Are you sure you didn't swap the photos at 10:30? The greens of the portra are more like the greens of the gold as seen at 8:14 and 8:57.

[AbdonPhirathon]

Gold looks so much better at golden hour! It makes Portra look cooler in comparison. Great video!

[jdsd]

Excellent video! Stoked to pick up some gold in 120. Thanks for the great side by sides!

[hirokunimih]

Seems like - at least based on the second set of images, that the portra does a much better job at preserving color accuracy in the shadows, while the gold has a warm cast to it.
