Hi! Love your blog <3 I was wondering if you know any films similar to portra? I love the purples it gives and have been looking for a less expensive option that would give me the same purpley tones. Do you know of any? Thanks!!

Hi there, honestly we can’t think of any film that can match Portra be it 160 or 400. But if you’re looking for cheaper alternative, Fuji Superia Xtra 400 is a staple and we find that it shoots really, really well in dim lighting. 

We love Kodak Gold 200 & even Ferrania 100ISO color negative but unfortunately the latter is no longer in production unless the rebooted (aka  Kickstarter funded) Film Ferrania finally gets their R&D sorted out, we are stuck with whatever Fuji & Kodak has to offer. 

Here’s to hoping that Kodak manages to keep themselves afloat (https://www.thephoblographer.com/2019/02/02/reports-state-that-kodak-alaris-is-looking-to-sell-assets/) and Fujifilm soldiers on with their current film line up.
