Comments about Fujifilm Fujifilm Fujicolor Superia 400 Color Negative Film ISO 400, 35mm Size, 36 Exposure, CH-36 (Exp. 12/10):

Cooler compared to Kodak Ultra-Max, which looks better with deep wood tones, but gives people hypertension faces. Otherwise a good all-around film. With a little overexposure bias in daylight, it gives vivid color at the cost of some acuity, while still holding neutral colors. Clumpy dye is only really obvious in blue skies.

Its strength is that it can render attention-grabbing color without producing the circus sideshow color for which Fuji is famous.

Tends to go purple-y when underexposed. Goes flat and magenta when fill flash is used, but I need to investigate that problem more.

Fuji has a winner here, and they know it.

This film is best suited for Causal photography. Say landscape, quick snapshots of people, for travel photographs, considerable low light shots, this film is realiable.

Comments about Fujifilm Fujifilm Fujicolor Superia 400 Color Negative Film ISO 400, 35mm Size, 36 Exposure, CH-36 (Exp. 12/10):

I wanted to try Superia X-Tra 400 because I noticed that it is identical to Fuji Press 400 in Fuji’s “Professional Data Guide.” Actually they use the same curves, graphs and identifier (CH) for both films. I took several rolls along on our annual pilgrimage to the lake this year and was extremely pleased with the results. I came home with about 1200 photos from my Nikon DSLR and a dozen rolls of 35mm film. My favorite images were those I made with X-Tra 400.

Digital is great but X-Tra 400 gave the exposure latitude that I like. Neither digital or slide film can capture the detail in billowing white clouds and tree shadows the way print film does. Colors were vivid and accurate while detail was surprisingly good. Scans were excellent for a 400 film. I like this stuff and only wish it was available in medium format too.

Comments about Fujifilm Fujifilm Fujicolor Superia 400 Color Negative Film ISO 400, 35mm Size, 36 Exposure, CH-36 (Exp. 12/10):

Superia 400 has been our basic wedding and portrait film. It is economical, has good speed with very fine grain. It's wide exposure latitude lets it capture detail in white wedding dresses and black tuxedos. It has accurate color, medium contrast, and mediium saturation which compliments most skin tones and hides blemishes. It is similar to the more expensive professional NPH films that we used in the past.

Comments about Fujifilm Fujifilm Fujicolor Superia 400 Color Negative Film ISO 400, 35mm Size, 36 Exposure, CH-36 (Exp. 12/10):

I standardized on Fujifilm years ago and on Superia ISo 400 when it was introduced. Sticking with one ISO speed allowed me to fully explore the range of the film. As noted, the only concern I ever had with this film was the possibility of getting reddish skin tones when shooting candid portraits using flash.
