FPP RETROCHROME 400 - Film Review

I want to preface by saying that I do really enjoy this film. However, it is quite limited to one look, and you can’t really do much to get around that. I would *highly* recommend that you look at sample images before you buy/shoot it! If you’re looking for very vintage, desaturated, grainy shots, you’ll definitely get that with this film. It’s a very fun shoot, and I personally really enjoy it in a Point and Shoot since it’s DX coded. Give it a try!

Excellent film with washed colors! Advice: if you shoot it a box speed, it will be underexposed, so you will have to do a little “genteleman’s post-adjustment” (i.e. set the black point). My advice to meter it to a half-stop-ish below box speed and you shout be good without adjustment.

I truly enjoyed shooting this 400-speed chrome film. The 400 ISO offers more flexibility with exposure options, the grain is not overwhelming and the subdued vintage colors are unique.
