Kodak Introduces New Professional Portra 400 Film. (Yes, you see well, Film.) 
Between new digital cameras releases and software updates Kodak announced the new Professional Portra 400 film. Film is alive and kicking and we hope that Fuji will produce again the Velvia one of the best film ever.

According to Kodak, the new Portra 400 features the finest grain* structure available in a 400 speed color negative film but we need to test that to be sure.
*Grain is what the call noise in the digital photography.
You can read the press release of KODAK at  www.kodak.com/go/professional
photo made in Maldives with Kodak Ektachrome E100VS - original File size 140Mb medium format




Those days Analog “old fashion” cameras are very cheap but the quality and file size which they are producing is amazing especially with bigger formats, but difficult for most of the new photographers as there is no space for mistakes on film…..!
