Comments about Kodak Kodak Professional Ektar Color Negative Film ISO 100, 120mm Size, *USA*:

Works better with moderate to bright light.
I used this product in a 645 camera and was surprised how well it enlarged (45X30) with little quality loss.

Comments about Kodak Kodak Professional Ektar Color Negative Film ISO 100, 120mm Size, *USA*:

Took this film with along with a bag of B&W and 160NC to use with my blad. I was very impressed by the grain, slightly better than the 160NC. The colours are very nice and eye catching. Great for landscape and architectonic work. Skin tones were a bit meh, wouldn't use it for portraits. Great film will be using this and 160NC from now on.

Comments about Kodak Kodak Professional Ektar Color Negative Film ISO 100, 120mm Size, *USA*:

This is a spectacular film when used with the right subject. It is sharp, vivid, and contrasty (as are most slower films). The grain is near-invisible even at high magnification, and it scans superbly.

It doesn't look great in every light, though. On gray overcast days it tends to take on an unappealing green cast. In bright, saturated daylight it seems to look better shot at 64-80 rather than at box 100 speed.

Aside from these caveats, i'd recommend it wholeheartedly.

Comments about Kodak Kodak Professional Ektar Color Negative Film ISO 100, 120mm Size, *USA*:

Colors have more than enough punch, the grain is outstanding, and the tonal range is very, very impressive. I am constantly amazed at what I can pull out of the shadows with this film.

Kodak Ektar 100/120mm
By RandyVerified Purchaser from Fort Worth, TX on 7/10/2009

Comments about Kodak Kodak Professional Ektar Color Negative Film ISO 100, 120mm Size, *USA*:

I have tried this film in 35mm and 120mm and there is no punch to the color and the color is not accurate. I do not think it is as good as the normal Kodak 200 daylight film or Kodak High Definition. It is definitely not in the same league as Kodak Ultra Color or Porta and Fuji Reala.
