Konica Big Mini BM-302 and Fujifilm Superia 400. Inverted by hand with no adjustments. A brief history of the Fujifilm Superia film line and the technology behind it. The new Classic Negative film simulation that’s found on Fujifilm’s latest cameras is intended to mimic Fujicolor Superia. Fujifilm doesn’t state which version of the film it’s intended to resemble; Fujifilm simply says that it’s “modeled after” Superia with “Superia-like” colors. They did very well in creating it, as it is unmistakably Superia. To me, straight-out-of-the-box Classic Negative most closely resembles Superia 200, although it’s not an exact match (but pretty close). There were at least a dozen different versions of Superia made by Fujifilm beginning in 1998, and a couple are still available today. I believe that Classic Negative can be made to resemble many of these different films. I started with Fujicolor Superia 100. It was from those special images that I really came to know the power of film as a photographic medium. I came into film photography thinking that I’d get some quirky, old-school looking images that I’d enjoy for a moment or two. Instead, I came away with a deep appreciation for the power and potential of analog, and today I realize that Superia may just be the perfect film for leading new shooters into the vast, colorful world of film photography.
The Color Film Photography Blind Taste Test: Can You Figure
To make things easier for you as you evaluate the photos, I’ve prepared a handy scoring sheet you can use to evaluate the films as we go through the blind test. To use it, and this is important, you’ll need to make a copy of my template. Please don’t send me a request to edit my copy. I can’t give you permission to edit the template. You need to make a copy of mine so you can edit it to your heart’s content. To do that, in Google Docs file menu, go to File -> Make a copy. The scoring sheet will help you prioritize the aspects of color film that are most important and unique to you and your shooting needs. So the first thing you’ll do is go along the top and rate how important each evaluation criteria are to you. First rate how important color is. Note that you’re not defining what is good color, only how important color is to you, in general.
Breakthrough Technology
Because Superia ZD is more robust, shorter run jobs will look better too, with consistent image quality from the first to last print. Print quality is exceptional - with a specification of 1-99% resolution and 20 µm FM screening, Superia ZD does not require any processing or finishing involving chemistry or gum, so the stability and consistency is actually better than a traditionally processed plate. A professional film made by Fujifilm in 400, 800 & 1600 ISO speeds. It uses the same emulsions as Superia at those speeds, [23] but has been specially handled (refrigerated) since the time of manufacture. [24] See also [ edit ] If you don’t know the storage history of your roll of film then I’d say it’s safe to assume that it’ll be fine up to 10 years out-of-date. After 10 years you’ll have to adjust and maybe overexpose a little bit. Final Word Superia is a daylight balanced, 400 speed, C-41 color negative film manufactured by our friends from the east, Fujifilm, and on the face of it the film sounds pretty average. To some, that’s enough to pass it over in favor of something with the word “Professional” in the name. But don’t let its average appearance fool you; Superia is a fantastic film that pushes the boundaries of what a consumer-grade emulsion can do. This film makes images that look downright pro, and shooters looking for the lo-fi charm of cheap film will more than likely be disappointed. It’s a thoroughly modern color film that was formulated to handle almost any situation, and as importantly, any level of shooter.
Fujifilm Superia X-TRA 400 35mm film review | Digital Camera
At times they even made some very revered cameras. Using the Fujica and Fuji names and as Fujifilm they made cameras that tended to fill in specialty markets. For instance the magnificent GSW690 and the GS645 medium format camera series. It might be hard to see, but with Portra 400 on the left, the overexposed areas aren’t as ‘blown out’ as they are with the Fuji on the right. Also, the Portra retains a bit more of the shadows than the Fuji does.Fujifilm Superia X-Tra 400 is a medium-speed C-41 emulsion widely distributed across the Canadian drugstore chain London Drugs .

Both Portra 400 and Fuji Superia are known for having fine grain, however, Portra 400 should have the finer grain of the two. I wonder if you think the new Classic Neg FujiFilm Simulation to be an even better (to life) choice. Not that there is any need for true renditions in photography.
Specification
No processing means the elimination of processing chemicals and the associated costs, saving the customer significant time and money – all without compromise in quality. Compatible with most thermal platesetters, Fujifilm’s SUPERIA Ecomaxx-T is a non-ablative plate that carries a latent image with distinct contrast, allowing for simple inspection after imaging. Kodak Portra 400 is undeniably better but Fuji Superia is really good for what it is. What Are They Best For? As per usual, Portra 400 is probably better in this department because of its dynamic range and finer grain, it’s tones are probably a bit better.

Alas, the fourth layer was dropped in 2007. Superia X-Tra 400 was discontinued in Japan in 2019 in favour of a local flavour of the same film: Superia Premium 400 . The Premium has no fourth layer, costs more, and is apparently “optimized for the reproduction of Japanese skin tones.” This was a really interesting comparison for me. Fuji Superia does have quite a lot going for it, much more than I gave it credit for. Kodak Portra has been around since 1998, although, I’m sure a variation of it has been available for a lot longer (Kodak loved to chop and change the name of things). Archived copy" (PDF).

Skin tones are natural and flat, not overly contrasty nor too much red in the highlights like some of the other, cheaper films. It doesn’t seem particularly sharp, and while it’s certainly a grainy film it feels tolerable to me.Notice of discontinuation of some photographic film products". www.fujifilm.co.jp . Retrieved 2020-02-09. Finally, we have Cinestill 50d. In its original form, this film is Kodak Vision3, which is a daylight balanced motion picture film. Cinestill takes Vision3 in bulk and removes the remjet layer so it can be produced as a photographic film. There are several distinguishing factors about this film that set it apart, but the biggest is what happens to it as a result of losing that remjet layer. That layer acts as an anti-halation layer for the film, so with it gone, you will notice a pronounced tangerine-ish colored glow around highlights. This is the Cinestiill trademark and depending on who you are, is what makes it beloved or hated. And while the film does exhibit extremely fine grain, it also has very low edge sharpness which makes it appear soft, again, as a result of that halation. Fujicolor Superia is a Fujifilm brand of daylight balanced colour negative film introduced ca.1998 primarily aimed at the consumer market, but was also sold in a professional 'press' variant. A key feature at launch was the '4th' cyan colour layer designed to provide improved colour reproduction under fluorescent lighting. Its Kodak equivalent is the Kodacolor (later Kodak) Gold/Ultramax line. I know what you’re thinking, it’s that meme from the office where she’s like “They’re the same picture” and honestly, there’s very little difference at all. The only thing that I think I can glean from these pictures is that the Superia may have a little more saturation in the magentas (the pink flowers) and possibly a little more green. The Superia line was introduced in 1998 , long before the Fujifilm axe began to swing for all but the most popular films the brand was making. It was a successor to the Fujicolor Super G “Plus” line that used Fuji’s branded Real-Tone and Emulsion Layer Stabilizing tech ( source ). All of that was aimed at improving colour reproduction, sharpness, and dynamic range. Superia does the same things but in a different way:
