The speed (400 ISO) makes it possible to capture images in low-light situations. Enlargements up to 16x20 look great.

Comments about Kodak Kodak Portra 400NC Color Negative Film ISO 400, 35mm Size, 36 Exposure, *USA*:

Since 1999, we have used Portra 400 NC for weddings, portraits, bar and bat mitzvahs, and other receptions, with various types of flash and under outdoor and window light. The film has produced excellent flesh tones, good tonal range, and fine detail in wedding gowns, cakes and other white and off-white items. Results have been consistent, We have occasionally used Fuji NPH (now Pro 400 H). which is a fine film, but we have returned to Portra 400 NC, and plan to keep using it for the above applications.

Highly accurate reproduction of color
By Roger In CentervilleVerified Reviewer from Centerville, OH on 11/8/2006
Pros:
Accurate, Consistent, Good Tonal Range, Reproduces Well, Scans Well
Best Uses:
Portraits

Comments about Kodak Kodak Portra 400NC Color Negative Film ISO 400, 35mm Size, 36 Exposure, *USA*:

This film accurately represents the subject, especially if you are photographing people in formal portrait settings. However, be aware that using this in most any other situation may disappoint, as most people expect a picture to have more "color" than real-life. Unless you are taking formal wedding or other "high value" photos where color accuracy is more important than "Wow", you might want to consider Portra 400VC (Vivid Color).
