Review 1 of 6

Price Paid:  $10.00

Summary:
This film is terrible if you shoot it at 800. Huge, coarse grain, washed out colors, excessive contrast. However, if you shoot it at 400, it becomes somewhat usable. The grain isn't quite as bad and the colors are somewhat more normal.

Strengths:
Cheap... got a 5-pack for $9.99

Weaknesses:
Grainy Bad colors Too contrasty Not as fast as they say it is

Strengths:
None

Weaknesses:
Huge grain and ugly colour.

Review 4 of 6

Summary:
The 400 asa version is the best I ever had for astrophotography! Now trying the 800 asa. Also very good for natural shots!

Strengths:
for the 400 asa: Very good for astrophotography!!! Also very fine grained and a good collor sat.

Weaknesses:
Only in 5-pack, but just 4,50$ a role! so actually no problem at all.

Review 5 of 6

Model Reviewed:
Ektapress PJ 800 ASA

Summary:
It's a good film with natural colors and not-so-noticeable grain. It's not so expensive, but I still prefer the Fuji 800's colors.

Strengths:
Good performance on low light situations. Could underexpose it 1 stop with no need of push-processing.

Weaknesses:
It's just available in 5-packs here in Brazil.

Similar Products Used:
Fuji Press 800

Customer Service:
Haven't use it.
