NEW Kodak Ultra Color Film

Has anyone tried the new Kodak Ultra Color film?
http://www.kodak.com/global/en/profe...lor/main.jhtml
I just saw it yesterday in Target. It came in a package of three rolls for
$9. The Kodak site says it's a professional film but the box called it a
consumer film. I guess film is still very much alive. As a film devotee
I'm always glad to see new products come on the market.

When I ran across it at the Kodak Web site, I somehow got the
impression that it was basically Portra UC relabeled. Look at

to find out more.

I got some 100UC recently, but I have not had a chance to test it yet.

No ****!?!? . . . . . That really surprises me to hear of it being sold in Target.
I will have to check my local Target next time I am there.

Were they 24 exposure, or 36 exposure rolls?

I thought it was only a professional product, though the Portra films do fine
without refrigeration. If they are only 24 exposure, maybe those shorter rolls are
being passed towards the consumer market. I have only seen it as 36 exposure, or
120 roll film. Of course, it would be great if I could get 120 roll film at Target

The speeds for Portra VC and Ultra Color are different and there is no
tungsten version of Ultra Color. They may have similar characteristics
though. Specs for these two films are he

If I rember correctly they were 24exp rolls. I doubt you'll find any 36exp
rolls of consumer films at retail outlets like Target.

This is 135 film. 120 and 220 is available but not at Target.

Bummer. The $9.00 price is close to what I pay for two rolls of 36 exposure. I
suppose that this is available at Target is at least a slight convenience,
certainly better than mail order.

I know . . . it was just wishful thinking on my part. I use mostly transparency
films, though on some occasions negative films fit what I need to accomplish.

OOPS! After visiting the Ultra Color web page about sizes I see that the
135 film only comes in 36exp rolls. I guess my memory wasn't so good after
all! Look he

Has anyone tried the new Kodak Ultra Color film?

I do not like Kodak color negative films. However, a Kodak rep gave me a few
rolls of the UC 100 & 400 speed films to try. I must admit that it is quite
good. I was pleasantly surprised, and would use it again.
