Having got a load of C41 developer, I *need* to start shooting plenty more colour film to try and work through it. It's a tough job but someone has to do it.
I've really not spent any time investigating colour films, so wondered what characteristics I should be expecting to find. I'm shooting 120 format, and my current film is Kodak Portra 400NC, mainly because I know the speed from HP5, and the muted tones sound like a good idea. Given that i'm going to scan all of the results does it matter too much about colour balance of different films? Should I worry too much or just bump things around after scanning?
The last order I placed was for 160 speed films, and I got some Kodak and both of the Fuji options to see how these behave.
So what other film should I try?
