Here’s our guide to pick the perfect film for your summer plans.
Headed somewhere sunny?
Pick a film stock with a low ISO number like Kodak Gold 200 or Ektar 100.
Kodak Gold is a warmer, medium-contrast film with very fine grain.
Ektar 100 is a high saturation film commonly used for landscape photography with even finer grain
Shooting photos at sunset or after dark?
Pick a film stock with a higher ISO number, like Portra 800 or CineStill 800.
Portra 800 is a warmer film that has a bit more grain, and is ideal in low-light situations.
Cinestill 800 is another great option in low-light situations known for its halation, which can add a glowing effect to your photos.
Uncertain?
If you aren’t certain what lighting conditions you’ll be shooting in, opt for a more versatile film like Fuji 400.
