Kodak revamps Portra 400-speed print film

For the second time in less than two years Kodak has tweaked its Professional Portra 400-speed colour negative film, claiming it delivers 'finer grain' than before.

'With finer grain and an emulsion overcoat specially designed for scanners, Portra 400 films reproduce beautifully, with either optical or digital output,' claims the company. 'This enables photographers to easily incorporate their film images into a digital workflow.'

The revamped Portra 400NC and 400VC films will cost the same as the current versions.

There is, as yet, no word on UK availability date.

Portra films are the biggest selling professional-level films in Kodak's portfolio.
