Characteristics of Kodak Professional PORTRA 400 120:

Kodak Professional PORTRA 400 120 is a highly sensitive professional panchromatic sensitized roll color negative film featuring the finest grain in its category, which greatly facilitates eventual digital scanning of the film and expands the possibilities in portrait, fashion and advertising photography. The film has a truly wide exposure flexibility, high edge sharpness and faithful reproduction of colour tones and skin tones. The nominal sensitivity of the film is ISO 400, but its great exposure flexibility guarantees very good results even when overexposing and underexposing. The film performs particularly well in overexposure. It is balanced for daylight, but thanks to its spectral sensitivity, it also ensures optimal exposure results at different chromatic temperatures. It replaces both the popular Kodak Professional PORTRA 400NC and VC films in the Kodak range.

This panchromatic sensitized film provides very good results under a variety of exposure conditions, and its color rendition makes it ideal for portrait photography, especially for its ability to capture extremely subtle skin tones and natural bright colors in the details shown. The film is characterized by its fine "skin tone" rendition, its ability to capture even the finest contrasts while retaining great exposure flexibility, finer color rendition, softer drawing and, thanks to its extremely fine grain, high edge sharpness. Although it is preferably intended for portrait and figurative photography, it can also be successfully used in other areas of creative photography, including commercial, advertising and fashion photography.

The film has improved reciprocating properties and higher colour image stability. A new generation of emulsion allows optimal results when scanning negatives. Due to its fine grain, the film is suitable for large format enlargements as well as for scanning.

Film processing:

The film is designed for machine processing in Kodak Process C-41 photo labs.
