Robert ★★★★★

Picked up a roll of this as the successor to the old APX 400 I used to shoot, and the grain structure in the 35mm format is exactly the classic look I was hoping for. The synthetic emulsion gives a nice contrast that holds up well in mixed daylight, and the 36 exposures mean I can stretch a whole we

Olivia L. ★★★★★

The synthetic base gives it a noticeably different grain structure than the old APX formula, and in 35mm it scans beautifully. I pushed it a stop and the midtones held up surprisingly well, though it's picky about exposure.

Claire ★★★★★

Finally got to shoot a roll of this, and the synthetic emulsion gives noticeably finer grain than the old APX 400 I used to run. Shadow detail held up well even in late afternoon light, which was a nice surprise for a budget film.
