Kodak Portra 800 35mm Exp 01-2005

The Kodak Portra 800 from this era is a seriously interesting stock for anyone chasing classic early-2000s Kodak color science with a bit more grit and speed. Unlike modern Portra 800, older emulsions like this tend to have a slightly different tonal response and grain structure that many photographers feel gives images a more organic, nostalgic look.

Portra 800 has always been popular for:

• Low-light shooting
• Flash photography
• Nightlife and concerts
• Editorial portrait work
• Mixed lighting situations

Expired high-speed color film can get especially unpredictable in fun ways, often introducing softer contrast, color shifts, extra grain, and a slightly dreamier rendering that works beautifully for experimental or atmospheric photography.

This roll expired in 01/2005 and has been fridge kept, which greatly improves its odds of still producing usable results compared to room-temperature stored film.

Condition: EXPIRED / FRIDGE STORED
This roll is expired dated 01/2005 and has been stored refrigerated. As with all expired film, results can vary and may include shifts in color, contrast, grain, or sensitivity.

Many photographers intentionally shoot expired Portra specifically for these imperfect and unpredictable characteristics.

Format:

• 35mm film
• Kodak Portra 800
• C-41 color negative film
• Expiration: 01/2005

Why this one:
