I guess your app meters just fine; at least my phone app does that as accurately as my M6. From the pictures, I saw online and here (thanks for sharing!), I reckon your images reflect pretty well what the new Phoenix film means: a steep gamma (like really steep), punchy colours (not too off) and lots of halation, all packed in a low-resolving, grainy emulsion with some acutance. It seems surprisingly well-performing with skin tones as lips are red and skin is, well, skin-toned. Because the gamma is pretty steep, it needs to be exposed accurately; think of reversal film, only that the bias should be directed towards a fat exposure. I have yet to test it. And I probably won't any time soon, as I'm well served with Kodak's cine stocks that give me everything I want. However, I can see it for shoots that aim for a vintage look—or younger folks like my daughter who long for a 70s lifestyle. Anyway, I love what Harman is doing! Maybe, at some point, they will surprise us with colour film stock that has the qualities of their B&W Delta series. That would be something! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gtownby Posted December 13, 2023 Share #63  Posted December 13, 2023 I’m curious how Phoenix translates to B&W, i.e., running a file through Silver Efx Pro. (Some of my best B&W photos started their lives as color negatives. . . .) Has anyone tried it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtownby Posted December 13, 2023 Share #64  Posted December 13, 2023 (edited) OK - I took the liberty of running two of Michael-Illf's photos through Silver Efex Pro. The first is a "More Silver" conversion. The second is neutral. I like the conversions a lot! (Thanks Michael.) Welcome, dear visitor!

Mr.Prime Posted January 8, 2024 Share #69  Posted January 8, 2024 (edited) The only images I've created with this kind of look was decades ago when I was living in England and using a film from Eastern Europe (Yugoslavia or Romania maybe); a really cheap deal that included mail-in processing. This Harman film has more saturated colours than I remember achieving from the cheapo film. Edited January 8, 2024 by Mr.Prime Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sometimesmaybe Posted February 15, 2024 Share #75  Posted February 15, 2024 i like the phoenix look. i shot and metered (spot on the face) as if it was a slide film the shadows look darker than expected (maybe by 1 or 1.5 stops). i didnt bother lifting the shadows, but i did dial back the highlights just a touch. you can easily see the green and cyan colour cast on the white wall. there was also some blue colour cast on the timber floor in terms of skin tone, it looks good, but i did dial back the red and orange to just for my personal taste  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wlaidlaw Posted September 6, 2024 Share #77  Posted September 6, 2024 From the images here, it seems to me to have a similar look to Kodak Colorplus 200. Some years ago, when this was reintroduced, I bought 10 rolls to take to India with me, as supposedly it resisted thermal degradation better than other Kodak negative films. I was using my Leica R9 (mainly with 50 Summicron R-II and 24 Elmarit R-II) and set it to the recommended 200 ISO. I was disappointed in the results. Low saturation and a narrow exposure latitude, so that the bright areas were over-exposed and the dark areas underexposed. I just have a suspicion that Phoenix might have similar characteristics, so for colour negative, I will stick to Ektra or for a 400 ISO film, Ultramax. Kodak's E100 colour Positive film just gets better and better and is now equal to or better than my previous favourite, Agfa Precisa CT 100, which was actually made for Agfa by Fuji using the Fujichrome formulation but on a warming substrate, to control Fujichrome's blue/green bias. Wilson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
