It's been two years since I've been gifted a roll of Fuji Natura 1600 and Superia 1600. These two discontinued film stocks are so confusing and scary to use. Combined with compensating for expiration and the requisite Fujifilm tax for light, this 1600 ISO film is truly around a 400. After taking these two out for a round of film night photography, I can see why this is Fujifilm's possibly biggest and expensive mistake.

Kodak did have a black and white film called Recording film in about 1970 with ASA 1600 for low light photography so you didn’t have to use a flash. It produced a lot of grain.

The Superia 1600 is way too overpriced online for my budget but I'm still chasing a good deal on some rolls. In my experience Fuji's expired films hold up better than Kodak's, which got me thinking that maybe they always used more "expensive" formulas in general than the competition.

Kodak did have higher iso color films and there was the Kodak Ektapress Gold 1600
@boondoc001
@boondoc001 Жыл бұрын
Yes! You are exactly correct and I've shot it myself. Since I shoot mostly expired film I realize that Fuji's films hold up much better because expired Ektapress 1600 have not produced results like this for me. Unfortunately I still have a few rolls left and I'm not motivated to use them lol. Also I've been trying to get my hands on some Superia 1600 on ebay for a while now but they sell for too high of a price or a bundle that is out of my budget. They sell quickly though

@@boondoc001 Hopefully, some brands will start to look at the profitable niche these films are in and produce some similar things at lower prices. Would love to see some new APS format films coming out, there are so many incredible cameras out that could be used creatively.
