HARMAN Phoenix is back with a brand-new formulation! Still full of character but now with improved contrast, grain, highlight / shadow retention, and sharpness. It is their 2nd generation color film and is very different from the original.
Each layer and component has been redesigned and reengineered into a completely new formulation. New dyes, couplers, and even an experimental layer construct!
Less bold and unpredictable than the original, Phoenix II still offers plenty of character for a truly analogue look.
The improvements to contrast, grain, and sharpness, help to retain shadow and highlight detail and enable more flexibility in exposure latitude (although Phoenix II still benefits from accurate exposure).
Scanning is also improved at default settings, and the final look will vary based on the scanner used. Phoenix II is your chance to try something completely new, experiment and get creative. Leave your preconceptions behind and enjoy the journey.
Phoenix II is DX-coded with a box speed of ISO 200 and works best rated between EI 100-200.
