Harman Phoenix II 200 35mm

I’ve been shooting with this new version and the grain structure seems finer than the original Phoenix, which makes a big difference for portraits. The colors are more natural but still have that warm English look I was hoping for. Definitely my new go-to for sunny days.

The greens and yellows in my test shots came out incredibly vibrant—this new formula handles bright sunlight much better than the original. Love that it's still made in England, too.

I’ve been shooting a lot of expired film lately, and this new batch gives me proper, vibrant colours straight out of the box. The grain is much finer than I expected from a 200-speed stock, which makes it perfect for portraits.
