Introducing CineStill 800Tungsten Xpro C-41 Color Negative Film, a reformatted movie stock expertly tailored for use in still cameras. This exceptional film has undergone a unique premoval stage that eliminates the traditional anti-halation rem-jet layer, making it compatible with both C-41 chemistry and the esteemed motion picture standard ECN-2 process.
This remarkable color negative film harnesses the remarkable qualities of high-speed motion picture stock, boasting a balanced formulation suitable for tungsten, incandescent, and fluorescent lighting conditions. With a nominal sensitivity of ISO 800/30°, it delivers optimal results. However, when capturing in daylight settings, we recommend employing an 85B filter and exposing the film at ISO 500 for the best outcomes. Its elevated film speed renders it ideal for tackling challenging low-light scenarios and facilitates push processing by up to 3 stops.
This product includes a single roll of 120 format film, offering convenience and versatility for your photographic endeavors. Crafted specifically for still cameras, it takes advantage of the benefits provided by high-speed, tungsten-balanced movie stock. The unique premoval stage ensures the absence of the rem-jet anti-halation layer, making it a perfect fit for C-41 processing. Moreover, you can confidently opt for ECN-2 chemistry without any concerns about the rem-jet layer.
One of the notable characteristics of this film is its distinctive halation effect, which imparts a captivating glow to highlights emanating from intense light sources. This feature adds an artistic flair to your images, enhancing their visual impact. Furthermore, its design caters to low-light and challenging lighting conditions, empowering you to capture remarkable shots even in the most demanding situations.
To further streamline your workflow, the emulsion of this film has been optimized for a hybrid approach, making it exceptionally well-suited for scanning. This ensures that you can effortlessly digitize your film and achieve stunning results during the post-processing phase.
For those seeking to explore the boundaries of creativity and push the limits of this film, it responds exceptionally well to push processing. With a recommended ISO rating and exposure index rating for push processing as follows:
- ISO 800: No push; EI 200-1600
