A Lucky Cat (FujiFilm 400 Review)

Title: Lucky Cat
Camera: Nikon FM2/T
Lens: Nippon Kogaku Japan Nikon 50mm f/1.4 non-AI manual focus
Film: FujiFilm Superia X-TRA 400
Venue: Soho, Hong Kong

This is my first time to try a FujiFilm film. Superia X-TRA 400 is known as an affordable film and ISO 400 also makes it an almost “all weather” film that preforms well in daylight and lowlight.

All film photographers will agree that it’s like 10x more challenging to shoot film at night due to lack of natural light, so a high ISO film will be quite desirable for night photography.

In comparison (this may be my very personal or “biased” view) I feel this FujiFilm film produces a warmer sense than some Kodak films, but there are also a lot of variables so my assessment is not scientific at all.

Perhaps 100 photographers will have 101 views about film.
