Kodak Eastman Kodak Ektar 100 120 5 Pak | Fine-grain colour for medium format

Fine grain is the defining quality of Kodak Ektar 100 120: this ISO 100 colour negative film is made for medium format cameras and comes as a five-roll pack. It’s a strong match for photographers who value saturated colour and crisp detail in their film images, then scan or enlarge the results. Ektar 100 renders colour with high saturation, so it’s well suited to photographs where vivid colour is part of the subject’s appeal. Its fine grain also keeps the image texture discreet, with clear edges and small details remaining part of the picture. The film’s scanning and enlargement potential makes it a considered option for work that will be viewed beyond the original negative, whether as a digital scan or a larger print. Five rolls give you a consistent stock of the same film for a set of photographs or a longer stretch of shooting, rather than a single roll. The format is 120, for medium format cameras. That’s the key compatibility point to keep in mind: this isn’t 35mm film. For medium format users after vivid colour, fine grain and detail that holds up to scanning or enlargement, Ektar 100 brings those qualities together in one well-defined film.

Why it is useful

• ISO 100: The film’s speed rating is ISO 100. That gives you a clear specification to consider when choosing film for a particular camera and photographing plan; the rating is stated plainly on the product rather than left to guesswork.
• Colour negative film: Ektar 100 is a colour negative stock, so it’s intended for colour photography on film. That makes it a straightforward option when the finished image should retain colour rather than render the scene in black and white.
• Fine grain: Its particularly fine grain keeps visible film texture restrained. This quality matters when you want detail to remain prominent, especially in photographs that will be scanned or viewed at a larger size.
• Strong colour saturation: The film renders colour with high saturation and vivid results. That gives colour photographs a lively character, with colour playing a clear part in the image rather than being rendered subtly.
• Clear edges and fine detail: Ektar 100 is described as having optimised sharpness, clearly defined edges and fine detail. Those image qualities help preserve crisp-looking boundaries and small features in the photograph.
• Suitable for scanning and enlargement: This film’s detail and grain characteristics support scanning and enlargement. That’s useful when the negative is also intended to become a digital image or a larger photograph, not just remain in its original format.
• Five rolls of 120 film: The pack contains five rolls in the 120 format. Having multiple rolls of the same film stock is useful for keeping a consistent look across a series of photographs or across more than one outing.
