What's your favourite FILM?

Ok I know some of you out there still shoot film. Let's get nostalgic. What are your favourite films, and why? (Just to avoid any confusion - I am NOT asking for your favourite movie)

I always tried to use the lowest ISO when shooting film, only shooting ISO 400 or greater when I knew it was going to be rough lighting, or I desired an affect from the grain.

I began shooting B&W Panatomic-X film, I think it was ASA 32, before Kodak discontinued it in the name of progress. Thereafter my B&W days were spent with Plus-X and later, T-Max 100 for B&W bulk loading and darkroom work.

On the color side, while everybody ranted and raved of Fuji Velvia I felt it had too much eye popping vivid green that caused scenes to appear unrealistically colored, the greens being too vivid for my taste. However, I did shoot this film quite a bit, usually reserving it for those early spring, late autumn shots when I really wanted the little bit of green left in the season to be seen.

Otherwise, I was shooting Kodachrome 25, then K64 when K25 fell away like the Panatomic-X did.

Just before switching over to digital I had dabbled a bit in Kodak E100VS and liked it.

Though I learned everything photographically possible during the film days, and am one of the few fortunate ones who has that benefit of the film lessons behind him, I still remain grateful for the switch to digital.

All time favorite was Kodachrome 25....loved the colors.

Velvia 50 gives colors and contrast like no other. Portra's tones are perfect, and match how you actually saw the scene perfectly. HP5+ and PanF 50 are amazing black and whites as well.

The Italian Job - Michael Caine was great

Ilford 50 B&W

Of course Kodachrome 25; best saturation on the color for landscapes / outdoor scenes.

I always liked an AGFA iso 100...it had a catchy name that I can't remember. Could only find it in a few spots around here, so I always had a bunch on the fridge door. The blues were great.

HP5+ is my fave black and white film. Love the grain and tones.

Star Wars Episode 6: Return of the Jedi. I've never heard of Kodachrome, I'll have to rent it at Blockbusters.

Between drugstore 400 ASA and Ilford HP-5, I'd go with the latter

B/W: Fuji Acros 100, Ilford HP5+, T-max (depending on my mood)
Slide: Provia 100
Color Neg: Kodak's Portra line

B&W: Fujifilm Neopan Acros 100, Neopan Presto 400
Slide: Fujifilm Fortia SP
C-41: Fujifilm Pro 160C, Natura 1600
