}{B Posted October 19, 2017 Share #1 Posted October 19, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) I'm thinking of picking up some colour print film to use with my Leica 111f and my 50mm Nickel F3.5 Elmar or my 50mm F2 Summitar. I just want the film for snaps when I'm out and about and I intend to scan the negatives and not have prints produced. I could buy Kodak Ektar but to keep the cost down I've been looking around for an alternative. Having a stop more available over Ektar would be an advantage and I've come across Fuji C200 which I've not used before. A ten pack would be much less expensive than Ektar and even less then Supria which I have used before. Cost isn't the deciding factor but if C200 produces decent colours and isn't difficult to scan I'd like to give it a try. Has anyone any experience with this film or is Superia the better film as the name seems to suggest? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fotomas Posted October 19, 2017 Share #2 Posted October 19, 2017 I prefer the Superia. C200 is not so bad compared to other low-cost films, but I found colors, especially skintones and handling in general better with the Superia. Also scanning was more easy. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsj Posted October 19, 2017 Share #3 Posted October 19, 2017 I also find Superia to be far superior to C200. Unfortunately all but Superia400 are being discontinued. but with a slow lens 400 ISO film might come in handy anyway. Kodak Gold 200 could be another alternative as that is quite a good cheap film as well. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
