Cinestill 400D - Film Review

Has good color saturation but exposure can be difficult to get right in tricky lighting conditions. I Shot it at box speed. Would recommend shooting a bit below box speed. This was my first time with this film.

ISO 400 isn’t my favorite film speed. I’d much rather prefer either ISO 50 or 800 depending on the situation. That being said there’s no arguing that 400 is useful if you do not know what your lighting situation will be in advance and/or if you need to jump between indoor and outdoor shots during the roll. Plus it’s always nice to see a new CineStill.

I like using 400 speed film for its versatility in lots of different lighting conditions. The film has a good grain that isn’t too overpowering, and some interesting effects due to the signature Cinestill halations.
