Hello everyone! I just got some stuff back, and I'm so stunned that all the shots on Kodak film are so annoyingly grainy, unsharp and too bloody dark! I've completely had it with anything that's got something to do with Kodak. T-max sucks....the T-max 100 is too unsharp, anything faster seems to be too grainy. The 400 TCN sucks ever more. Monochrome film doesn't seem to be as impressive as real b&w film. And I never really liked C41 anyway. I don't shoot b&w that often, but for fast film I like Neopan 1600 much better and for slow film Ilford is just superior. Like I said before the ektachrome is mighty sharp, but it just never seems to be able to give a bit of natural colors. It can be awesome, but for such expensive film like 20% of my shots are always underexposed. Very irregular film, as far as I've been able to test it. The Ekta 100 is just about the worst e6 film I've ever tried. It's just bloody aweful, it's the least impressive I've seen sofar and the 400 is even worse....it's the grainiest film I've ever seen, it doesn't offer any, any, any sharpness at all. Sofar I've only got one (1, uno, een, ein, one!) roll of satisfying results back. All the time for some reason from 36 shots about 10 are underexposed (I mean close to complete black slide), another 10 and unsharp, and of the remaining just between 10 or 5 hardly ever give me enough sharpness, or natural colors, or the exact exposure. Terrible stuff, if I can edit these shots I got back today I'll have to go back and shoot again.... I have to admit that kodak does have one of the best photography sites on the net. No idea why, lol. No, I'm just ranting here...don't take me too seriously. I also shot some stuff on Sensia II, which is really cheap, but it still amazes me how good this film is...for a consumer e6 film. Now why can't Kodak keep up with the other's ? Fuji is just my favorite with E6, and Ilford with B&W. I also like Agfa Scala, but it's not easy to get. Shame....
