Whether you’re an avid Portra 400 user and are looking to experiment with other speeds, or are seeking out your very first Portra roll and aren’t sure which to start with – you’ve come to the right place! It’s common knowledge at this point that to get the best results from Portra 400, you have to over-expose by a stop or two.

Hi SROYON, in your test I couldn't understand some things. I was able to understand the test for whites, but… Starting it off with Cinestill’s most popular film, Cinestill 800T brings cinematic converted film to the masses.
