Evelyn X. ★★★★★

I shot a roll at box speed in mixed lighting and the grain structure is gorgeous, with plenty of shadow detail. The contrast is spot-on for a classic cinema look without being too harsh.

Ellie Z. ★★★★★

First roll through this and the grain is just gorgeous, that classic motion picture look that still feels alive today. It’s got that lovely contrast without being harsh, and the daylight shots have a depth my usual stocks can’t touch.

George I. ★★★★★

The grain on this stock has a beautiful, classic texture that perfectly complements the high contrast. I shot a whole roll at box speed and the shadow detail was surprisingly rich for such an old-school emulsion. Perfect for that timeless, gritty look I was after.
