   Love the warm honeyed skin tone. Would you say this film has finer or courser grain than Portra 400? Chroma noise is very well controlled.

   @superultramike i’d honestly say they’re comparable grain and latitude wise. the grain on vision3 250d is noticeable but very soft and pleasant - and the same can be said for Portra. Tone-wise, though, Portra handles different lighting a lot better (e.g. cloudy weather, late afternoon etc) while 250d turns you into somewhat of a reverse vampire who is dependent on bright sunlight for the best colors and tones (at least in my humble experience)

   @superultramike to add, I’ll still be using Portra 400 for ‘important’ portrait shoots or once-in-a-lifetime landscapes on trips because it’s just a lot more reliable and offers more shadow and highlight detail - but for more casual photography, 250d is becoming one of my favorite color stocks side-by-side with Pro Image 100

   Reverse Vampire! Okay. I’ll consider the need for bright daylight when using it. And I see, since we’re analyzing, Portra would neutralize / moderate skin tones which this stock is not doing—not that I mind, I love wild colors with the appropriate model. I think the cinema stuff get graded in post in Resolve or something. (Lomo 800, my stock of choice, is not flattering to people with less than perfect skin and I had soooo much fun arguing with a model about it.) There’s a bunch of these cinema stocks I have’t tried; I would like to try Kodak Aerocolor too which has vivid saturation but excellent shadow information :-)

   @superultramike here’s an example of a roll of 250d that i shot on an overcast day. some of these are surprisingly good, but others are less than desirable - it’s more unstable in cloudy weather, i’d say
