Hello, and welcome to my occasional series where I try out different vintage film cameras and various types of 35mm film.

For this set of pictures I used my Nikon N6006, one of my favorites for ease of use and quality of images.

The film is
Cinestill 400d. |

This film is well-reviewed and appreciated for its versatility. It's a
"fine-grain, daylight-balanced color negative film that delivers a soft color palette with natural saturation and rich, warm skin tones. The film has a wide dynamic range with a base sensitivity of ISO 400, but can be rated from 200 to 800 (without push processing) and pushed up to 3-stops. This makes the film highly versatile, usable both indoors or in the studio, under virtually any lighting conditions." |

I enjoyed using it in various scenarios, and appreciate the rich tones of the set of photos I'm sharing here.

However, I think its obvious from the rest of my work, both with film and especially with my main body of work in fiber, that I prefer a more exuberant color palette.

I am also admittedly a happy non-professional photographer, and very probably lack the knowledge base to use this film to its highest potential.

So in summary, great film, happy I tried it, but it's a one-off for me. This is why I love to experiment, as I always learn something new I can apply going forward.
