Kodak Ultramax 400 - Film Review

Shot the whole roll during some snowy days. Grainy but sharp when zoomed in. This film has a warm and sometimes greenish color cast, so it’s probably better for the summer. But I really liked my photos from this film!

This is a great film that I think gets passed up by the 200 speed Kodak film stocks often. It has decent latitude and my images always come out sharp. I will upload a shoot that I shoot at 200 iso on a bright day here in San Diego. I recommend giving this film a try if you haven’t before!

I’ve shot Ultramax400 at box speed, overexposed it by +1 and +2 stops, pushed it +1stop (i.e. 800) and it always comes out as I expect. The only downside I can find in it is that you always have to error on the side of overexposure rather and under, colors and shadows get “muddy” quite quickly. Oh and did I mention that it’s cheap and can be found in rolls of 24 or 36 exposures?
