batmax Posted June 26, 2008 Share #1 Posted June 26, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) I'm serching a good negative with briliant colour ( similar to the slides) with medium iso sensibility to be scanned after the develop. Now I'm using kodak ultra color 400 but I'm not so happy. This film seems to have cold colours and not so briliant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

herbet Posted June 26, 2008 Share #2 Posted June 26, 2008 Fuji PRO S is beautiful, but that's 160 ISO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
usccharles Posted June 26, 2008 Share #3 Posted June 26, 2008 i've been getting good results with fuji proH 400. good colors indoors as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riccis Posted June 26, 2008 Share #4 Posted June 26, 2008 I love Fuji Pro 400H as well. If you want more contrast, definitely go for the 160S or 800Z. Good luck! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
matiasgd Posted June 28, 2008 Share #5 Posted June 28, 2008 IMHO the best is KODAK ultra 100 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotohuis Posted June 28, 2008 Share #6 Posted June 28, 2008 Fuji pro 400H or 160S is indeed a good choice but if you're searching for high contrast and saturation the Fuji pro 160C (or the pro 800Z, iso 800) is the choice. Here some examples of the 160C version, M7, Summicron, without any filters. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nokton_user Posted June 28, 2008 Share #7 Posted June 28, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) fotohuis, Is this film developed in minilab or professional lab? Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotohuis Posted June 28, 2008 Share #8 Posted June 28, 2008 Is this film developed in minilab or professional lab? nor both, I have developed the film at home: http://shop.fotohuisrovo.nl/product_info.php?cPath=31_46&products_id=166 But C41 is C41: C41 dev. 3:15 min at 37,8 degrees C. Blix 6:30 min. wash: 3:00 min. stabilizer: 1:00 min. drying and ready to scan or print. The only side effect from this K54 Amaloco kit is that the orange mask is a little bit darker then films from the mini-lab. Maybe your question about the deviation of a C41 developing process: At home: 37,8 +0,5 -1 degrees C. and a good professional lab: 37,8 +/- 0,3 degrees C. However the Amaloco kit has some more tolerance about the developing temperature. The only thing I know for sure: Fresh C41 developer, no scratches, dust, finger prints unless you make the mistake yourself From the same film and topic (Prague, Czech Republic): Driving around in an old fashioned Skoda. best regards, Robert Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RITskellar Posted June 28, 2008 Share #9 Posted June 28, 2008 I'm in a similar boat, still looking for a satisfying color neg film. I have intermittent success, or at least a few that I like, with Kodak Portra 400NC and like others have already mentioned, Fuji Pro 400H. Here's a couple examples of what I typically see, though I have these push processed 1 full stop and then scan on a Nikon 9000. 1st one is the Kodak Portra, the 2nd is the Fuji.

analog-photo Posted June 29, 2008 Share #10 Posted June 29, 2008 Since a couple of years I've been using Kodak Porta 160 VC and 400 VC and I'm very satisified with the results. Since I don't do my own processing I've developed (!) a good relation with a local lab which produces excellent results (as long as the software behind the camera functions ) No, I don't have a scanner to show any of it, but it's on the to-buy-list...

tobey bilek Posted June 29, 2008 Share #11 Posted June 29, 2008 FUjI 160s and the new Portra films are made to be scanned and are superior to previous versions. You will get fine grain and natural colors with good shadow detail. Increase saturation in Photoshop if you with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
