Best 35mm film out there. Colors are somehow rich & subtle at the same time.

I've used all the Portra films and this is my favorite. It's slow but you can get beautiful outdoor shots in low light if you can hold the camera steady enough, but indoors in artificial light it's not as great. The color rendition is accurate with that beautiful, soft Portra glow.

Finding good quality color film (at a reasonable price) is getting harder every year. Portra 160 is fantastic for the price, and not much more expensive than consumer-grade Kodak Ultramax (Gold) 400. Well worth it. Fantastic color rendition and excellent exposure latitude. Five stars!

This is a great product. This is definitely one of my favorite films. It has captured some of the best skin tones and it really impresses viewers. I often get asked if it was a Hollywood studio that took the photo (and I’m not the world’s best photographer by any means). One thing that it is not, I repeat, not good at is low lighting. At Disneyland (for example), at night I took a photo of Main Street. I could only see the popcorn lighting on the buildings and some of the castle at the end of Main Street, but everything else was dark. During the day, however, the photos I took of Main Street and the castle were spectacular. In conclusion, it is by far one of the best daytime films.

This is an excellent portrait film, and useful where color needs to be controlled such as already colorful Christmas scenes.This company was a good source for their film, new, well in date, and good delivery.

Nice contrast and detail ! Let's hope the manufacturer continues production of this film. I have been using Ektar 100 ever since the "new" version came out, and decided to try a pro-pack of the Portra. Most of my film shooting is in the Summer, on the water, with lots of sunlight and reflections. The Ektar always did well, but the Portra wonderfully preserves the detail in the shadows. Less grain than Fuji 160S. Exposed and developed at rated speed. I sent it off to a professional photofinisher. Serious camera & glass.

This is an absolutely amazing film. Sharp, with slightly muted tones, exceptionally flattering to fair-skinned models and rainy, foggy days. I shoot it at the rated ISO, and this is my favorite color film for portraits and general use. I would bet a lot of Kinfolk magazine is shot with this film or a close digital imitation, it certainly has a similar look.Highly recommended.

Kodak Portra 160 is probably the best colour print film available. The colours and colour balance are excellent; with no particular bias, or emphasis, to any colour. All colours are rendered lifelike and natural, and definition is also, excellent. Skin tones are particularly good and natural. This is not the case with certain other films, that I have tried. Fuji film tends to emphasize the yellows and greens in the picture, and lesser Kodak film emphasizes the reds and browns, in the picture. The ASA 160 speed rating is a little slow, but gives a grain-free picture. One limitation of this film is that it has a shorter shelf life than amateur film. I would recommend it be kept in the fridge until needed. I would recommend this film to every professional, and keen amateur photographer.

I *love* Portra 160. Love it, love it, love it. And I agree with earlier reviewers on important points--Portra 160 is unmatched for* gorgeous, gentle color palettes with unparalleled skin tones;* incredible highlight dynamic range (which makes it a perfect solution for bright, mid-day backlight that'd clip digital);* taming mixed lighting--shadows and direct sun, incandescent and natural, etc.However, just to set expectations properly in a world dominated by digital imagery: the results aren't "grain free" as other reviewers have suggested, nor does 35mm film (of any kind) approach medium format's dimensionality, tone, and sharpness. Portra 160 is wonderful, but, to give you an idea: the results aren't as smooth or as detailed as Portra 800 shot in medium format 6 x 7.That said: 35mm Portra 160's grain *is* very fine and it scans beautifully, giving portraits a cinematic contrast and structure. So the grain's a good thing, and it's not at all obtrusive with prints up to 8" x 10" (maybe 9" x 12" in a pinch) or similarly-sized JPEGs (so, 1024 pixels or so @ 96 DPI, on a common non-retina screen). Print or display larger than that, though, and the limits of the 35mm format's resolving power become clear: image structure and sharpness will fall apart quickly. Really, it's happiest for 5" x 7" prints--for which it's probably finest the tool available, digital or otherwise.One other note: be careful with exposure--more careful than you're used to being, maybe, with print film, especially if you're used to shooting Fuji. The latest Portras (160, 400, and 800) all have the great dynamic range you'd expect with C41 films, and they can even be push-processed a stop with acceptable results. Extreme overexposure, though, will emphasize a yellow-brown color cast, so you won't want to rate them more than 2/3 of a stop over box speed. (Honestly, I find Portra 160 is happiest right at 160, maybe notch to 125 if you want just a little bit more shadow detail.) Lots of shooters try Portra after experience with Fuji Pro 400H (which responds beautifully to two- or even three-stop overexposure) and find themselves not liking Portra's colors when shot the same way--so watch out if that's you: try box speed first!Anyway, this is all burying the lead. Portra 160 is where it's at, visually. If shot, sized, and displayed or printed right, the results look like nothing else out there in the digital world--or, like digital images that've been retouched by a world-class hollywood editor. Detail and dimension leaps from such flattering softness; vibrant colors dart in and among an otherwise neutral, gentle daylight palette. It's just magic!
