What makes Kodak Gold 200 special?

Kodak Gold 200 comes in 35mm and recently (well a year ago hehe) you can also get it in 120! The Gold 200 is a colour negative C-41 process film that offers a wide range of benefits for both amateur and professional photographers. Some of the standout features of this film are its fine grain, warm natural tones and medium contrast.

It’s ideal for daylight photography and we would suggest to shoot it at box speed, you can also experiment and shoot it half a stop or even overexpose by 1 full stop, results will still be decent.

We know that it doesn't offer a fine grain like its big brothers (hi Portra series), but it still offers a fine grain that most of film photographers would be happy to work with. It is also amazingly priced and we highly recommend it as starting point for medium format colour photography.
