New negative colour film
The new Kodacolor Gold negative colour film is “better than any other amateur film available in New Zealand,” says Mr Ross Sheppard, general manager of Hanafins Photographs, Ltd. Hanafins was among the processing laboratories in Australia and New Zealand to which makers Kodak (Australasia), Ltd, sent advance samples of the 100 ISO version of the film, to assess and set up processing channels for. The 100 ISO film is now available, while the 400 ISO version is expected soon. The film, says Mr Sheppard, has the best colour saturation, and widest
processing colour-control range and exposure latitude, of any Kodak negative film. At optimum exposure there is “superb” highlight and shadow detail, he says. Prints from film over- or underexposed by one stop (x 2) are indistinguishable from at optimum. Negatives are printable at five stops under-exposed. The colours in Kodacolor Gold maintain their relativities better than in any other amateur film as exposures vary, says Mr Sheppard. The film was designed on the results of an opinion survey in the States.
