Expensive? Yes.

Supremely versatile, great skin tones, luscious greens and nails the shot even if your exposure is a bit off? Absolutely.

When you only have one chance at getting the shot Kodak Portra 400 35mm film makes a lot of sense.

36 exposures per roll.

Available in 120 format as well.

For a value alternative try the Lomography Color 400 film.
