Kodak's BEST 35mm Film Stock!

In this video, I talk about one of my all-time favorite film stocks which is one of the best-performing stocks I've ever used. It is a sensitive, clean, color-negative film stock that gives some of the most professional results I've seen out of a film stock! Here is why Portra 800 is one of my favorite film stocks!

It’s too bad many young photographers of today weren’t around during film’s heyday. In hindsight I was lucky to have been involved from the 60s, 70s and 80s when the choices were almost limitless. Film stocks like the undisputed king of color - Kodachrome - from back when the processing for it was available, Fuji Superia Reala 100, Ilford’s early stuff, Agfa, Adox, and so many more amazing films were plentiful and relatively cheap at around $2 per roll with processing and prints for another $2 or $3. I agree about the quality of the Kodak Portra line, especially the 800, but I’m sorry for you guys that the cost of film has risen so high. Film photography is such fun but the current costs have made it only accessible to those with lots of cash. Keep creating and embracing film. Magic is in your hands.

I agree that this is one of the best, my favorite, I'm looking for black and white films with a little grain, do you have any to recommend? Anyway, I loved the style you edit your videos, hopefully as time goes by you gain recognition. (using the translator, sorry for any mistakes)

I haven't personally shot Portra 800, but the results from the video are interesting, I like the more close up shots you showed, also love the color reproduction. I started out with expired Kodak Gold 200, which gave me one of my favorite shots I've done, I've shot a lot of Kodak Ultramax 400 now as it's actually still readily available for a decent price at the Walgreens only a couple blocks from where I live, so it was interesting to see a direct comparison. I get a lot of film from the lab where I usually have my shots developed so next time I'm in I'll see about grabbing a roll and testing it out, my Minolta Himatic AF2 could use a little love anyway lol great video!

I just shot Portra 800 for the first time on my AE1 during my trip to the PNW earlier this month. I got some really good results!

Very well-made video and an excellent film stock recommendation! Thanks!

It comes down to scanning, Portra 800 has the best underexposure capability of any color film available today if you scan it right. You can really control the look by over or underexposing it. You can shoot it at 1600 without pushing it no problem.

Why waste this expensive film on… tree branches lol
