Harman Phoenix 200 Color Negative – 35mm Film, 36 Exposures, Single Roll

Introduction

HARMAN Phoenix 200 is a brand-new ISO 200 color negative film with a real analogue look and feel! This is the first ever color film made entirely from emulsion to cassette at the HARMAN technology factory in Mobberley, a significant and incredibly exciting milestone.

This quirky, experimental film produces high contrast images with strong, visible grain and punchy, vibrant colors. Its unlike any other colour film.
With a DX coded cassette and a box speed of ISO 200, Phoenix can be rated between ISO 100 and 400 but performs best in good, consistent light. On brighter days or when shooting into the light there is a possibility of halation.

Getting the exposure right will help to get the best results so we suggest metering for the mid tones to retain shadow or highlight detail, (over or under exposure is not Phoenixs friend)!

Part of the fun of shooting film is expecting the unexpected and this film delivers exactly that from its uniquely colored negatives to chance encounters with coating anomalies. Hold back your expectations and enjoy the experience!

Why HARMAN Phoenix 200 is different:
HARMAN Phoenix 200 is an experimental C41 color film and the first ever made by HARMAN Photo. As such it has characteristics that make this very different to the more traditional, established C41 color negatives films.
In addition to the risk of occasional coating anomalies, this film does not have masking dyes and limited antihalation incorporated in the base layer. This means that striking halation effects around bright light sources and reflections are possible. In addition to its atypical color rendering, this film has a distinctly analogue look when shooting certain scenes and color palettes.

Exposure Rating:
HARMAN Phoenix 200 film has a speed rating of ISO 200/24 (200ASA, 24DIN, EI 200) to daylight. The speed rating was measured using standard C41 processing. Although rated at 200/24, Phoenix can be exposed over the range EI 100/21400/27.
