It will give you that Kodak look and grain, not that muted as Portra and not that vivid as Ektar. It's good for vivid skintones. It will remind you pics from 90th taken with point-and-shoot :-) Professional films will give you too clinic picture, almost digital. With Kodak UltraMax you are more on an amateur side for wild colors which we all like.

I have crossed over back to film cameras. I've purchased an OLD Nikon F2 in beautiful condition and using Kodak GC/Ultramax film and my results have been interesting and varied as I become reacquainted with film cameras. I like the mystery surrounding taking pictures with film and the various outcomes. I was bored with my digital camera and I now enjoy taking pictures again. I still pray every day that Kodak will bring back Kodachrome and the EPA will get off their backs and allow Kodachrome processing again.

I have used Kodak Ultramax under a variety of conditions and it has almost always given me good results. I prefer Ultramax over Fuji 400 because the color tones and rendition given are so much closer to real life than Fuji. Fuji in my eye tends to have very saturated colors and brings out the blue a lot more than Kodak. I have a Canon film scanner and this film scans relatively well although not as well as Portra 400 or Ektar 100. Both Portra and Ektar are professional films so that is to be expected. Still with that in mind I am satisfied with the results from the Ultramax I have scanned. The only problem I have had with this film is it can tend to be a little flat and grainy when a long exposure is done. This film also is very affordable and the 36 exposure rolls ...

Used with fish eye lomo camera. Great sensitivity allows use outdoor without the flash, even in cloudy conditions. Able to capture more details with the flash indoor, even in the corner of the frame with the fisheye lens camera of Lomography series (reminder-fisheye lens captures 180 degrees of view). The film cost is OK at $, however, processing is a bit pricey at $ for 36 frames on matte paper, single set, no CD. Though its understandable that most of the people are doing digital pics this times and not too many stores are handling the development anymore. I wish B and H Store prints my Kodak film on Kodak (not Fuji) paper for better results.

This is a film for someone who likes a punchy vintage look and who wants everyone to know right away that their photos were definitely shot on real film (for better or for worse). The thing about this film is that there isnt a lot of dynamic range, but if you use it purposefully as such you can get some nice results. Its *very* easy to underexpose the shadows, and even sometimes parts of images that didnt seem dark in real life will come out really dark in the image. Its an interesting exaggerated contrast effect and can be cool once you get a feel for what till happen. The colors that come through will be punchy and saturated, and the shadows will be plain mysterious dark brown or black (or green). Its also a lot easier to OVERexpose this film than nicer stuff like ...

The colors that come through will be punchy and saturated, and the shadows will be plain mysterious dark brown or black (or green). Its also a lot easier to OVERexpose this film than nicer stuff like Portra - and blown highlights can definitely come out as plain informationless white parts of the image. I got a lot of shots with both black shadows and blown out highlights in one shot, before I figured out how to use the low latitude of this film purposefully. There are lots of high dynamic range shots that would work just fine on Portra, or even on digital without HDR bracketing, but would be a hot mess on Ultramax. But, it is what it is, and evenly exposed sunny daylight scenes can even be lovely. The colors sometimes come out idiosyncratic and specific to this film. In the end, you get some distinctive photos that nobody would ever mistake for digital creations. Ultramax colors are most true to life in direct sunlight or with a good set of diffused speedlights, where you might even mistake it for an expensive film. Indoors or in shadowy light, or even midday overcast daylight, it shows the Ultramax signature look. Depending on the film lab, and the types of lighting, underexposed shots can sometimes be yellow and sometimes green hued, I havent totally figured out the rhyme or reason there, since Ive generally avoided underexposing it too much. And, hey, the cost of film doesnt get any cheaper than this Ultramax 400 stuff. Its a good film for having fun and for a vintage look. And, itll look nice on a sunny beach vacation, too.
I am relatively new to film but I've shot about 40 rolls in the last 2 months and experimented with at least three major cheap color films: 1. Fuji Superia 400 2. Lomo 400 3. Kodak Max 400 I shoot street style stuff and this is my daylight film. I switch to B&W at night. The short synopsis is Fuji = very saturated color with a slightly cool base. Lomo = Magenta cast to everything, not particularly sharp or contrasty. Kodak = warmish, sharp and contrasty enough for me. I like the response in lower light better than either the Fuji or Lomo. Lomo, especially seems to do worse for me in lower light. While on this learning curve, I think I'm going to stick with the Kodak. As my eye develops I might upgrade to the pro grade films but for cheap color film, the Kodak is ...

Cheap, reasonably fast, and pleasantly warm rendition makes this a personal favorite. Visibly grainy, but pleasantly so. Handles underexposure surprisingly well, though in extreme cases it might not be practical to suck all the details out of the void. I'm particularly fond of it in warm lighting indoors.Portra is nice - really nice - but Ultramax is what you want if you're after a slightly more analog look.
I purchased 3 rolls of UltraMax 400 for a Lomokino camera also bought as a gift for my son from B&H. Products were received timely and well packaged. He has not yet used the film or camera but I suspect both will be great! I certainly know the Kodak UltraMax long term, it's been around a lot of years and is a main stay!
I received my first-in-decades roll of developed film back from the store the other day. Thankfully all the images were good. Depending on the light, you will get a nice range of black to gray to white. Similarly there is a lot of grain if the lighting is not great. The film gives a very classic feel. I really enjoyed it.
I shoot a lot of this film honestly, because it is readily available at the drug stores around me. It is a very comfortable and easy to shoot film that performs really well in most situations. It also holds up really well on a more high end set up too, so it really can do it all! Ultramax is a great all-around option.
