Nice colors, not too grainy

One of the best and most reliable medium speed films ever made... Happens to be one of the best left on earth. As film photography as a medium slowly seeps away, Portra 160 is holding out as a: high resolution perfect skin tone rendering champion. For those who enjoy the process of shooting on film, this stock is an underrated touch of perfection. Colors are not oversaturated and unnatural. Tones are really wide (high dynamic range when exposed properly). A reliable joy to use. I won't give it up until I'm gone or there are no more rolls of it left on earth.

Definitely one of - if not the best of all Kodak films. Portra 400 is great... But it isn't as sharp as 160... It isn't as good with color as 160.... It doesn't enlarge or print as large as 160. Outside of speed is 160. I say there's Portra 160 and Portra 800 that is all. Shame Fuji didn't have Kodak to make it for them.

I absolutely love Portra 160. The grain is practically nonexistent in 4x5, and the colors are almost dreamlike, especially when overexposed a touch. I tend to rate it at ISO 100, but it can handle even more than that. Great for portraits AND landscapes. Magical stuff!

Love the color & fine grain out of this film stock! I don't shoot it too often, but I'm always happy with the results when I do. Looking forward to doing more studio work with 160 this winter.

Couldn't be happier with the film quality but the prices don't exactly scream value

Best scannable emulsion out there. Accurate but more subdued color compared to Ektar and very decent exposure latitude.

Portra 160 is one of my favorite stocks because it has such a balanced color palette. I love P400 as well but sometimes it's warmer than I want for a given photo. I've used 160 for a wedding and for street work/landscape and love the results I get.

This is a wonderful film, possibly likely the best available color negative film for photographing people! Very forgiving film! BUY LOTS OF COLOR FILM! Keep it alive!
Exactly as it should be
By Esteban
If you are looking for wild, over the top colors and contrast look at Ecktar or Velvia. This film is nearly perfect for portraits. Soft, somewhat muted colors that nail skin tone yet give just vivid enough color to make the eyes pop. It can sometimes use a little post processing, but almost always it is the perfect portrait film SOOC (straight off of scanner!)
