When I reviewed Fuji’s Industrial 100 film, I mentioned how its greens and reds were the colours that popped the most. C200 is similar with the greens, although the reds – while still strong – come out a little darker and less gaudy than with the Industrial. Fujicolor C200 is the kind of film that’s available almost everywhere film is sold. If you have a place local to you that sells a large variety of film off the shelf, they probably should have this. Or if not, at least the C-less Fujicolor 200 version. Professional, high-image quality, daylight-type color reversal film with superb granularity, and world-class levels of image color saturation and vibrancy.Precise modulation, vivid color reproduction and excellent image quality make this the outstanding film for nature, fashion, products, interiors, and artwork photography.Exceptional performance, ISO speed rating of 50, excellent results in push-/pull processing for a wide range of exposures - from -1/2 to +1 stop, enabling a wider array of photo opportunities. Now that I’ve heaped praise onto this inexpensive color film, I’m going to tell you that I prefer this film’s slightly slower brother, Fujicolor 100! (I’ve reviewed it twice, here and here.) But that film is hard to come by (it’s officially only available in Japan) and expensive when you do find it. For pennies a frame, it’s hard to beat Fujicolor 200!

Minimum color balance variation over a range from -1/2 to +1 stop to enable wider photo opportunities. Also allows fine adjustments of exposure and density to be easily done during processing.Fuji's Fujicolor 200 Film is designed for its ease of use and flexibilty, Fujifilm 200 works equally well both outdoors in daylight or for indoor photography when using a flash. My biggest annoyance is with the pink / magenta color cast. Still not sure whether it's normal or not. A trip to the gorgeous countryside around Yangshuo in southern China would be a good place to see the C200’s green reproduction too. Faithful reproduction of neutral grays over a wide exposure range from underexposure to overexposure. There are sharper color films than Fujicolor 200. But this film is plenty capable of getting good detail. Minolta XG 1, 45mm f/2 Minolta MD Rokkor X Konica Autoreflex T3, 50mm f/1.7 Hexanon AR Olympus Trip 35 Olympus Stylus Epic Zoom 80

further refined sharpness" that will deliver "the kind of image quality and clarity you expect from ISO100 films". C200 is a C-41 color negative film. Fuji says that it's designed for "flexibility and ease of use". And that part is true. Consumer market films are more forgiving so you can over and under expose a decent amount and still get usable results. On the other hand - the colors might not be as nice and grain can be more noticeable. Smooth gradation reproduction with superb depth, thanks to bias-free, brilliant highlights and excellent highlight-to-shadow gradation linearity.

Comments

I’d suggest for a pro film, things like, fine grain, high micro-contrast and good subjective sharpness, with good colour consistency under a range of conditions – and of course the higher price. In reality most cheaper consumer grade films I find get to 80% of the performance of ‘professional grade’ films. It’s only when being super-critical or shooting in sub-optimal lighting conditions do the differences emerge. The images shown here really, really don’t do C200 much justice – they all look quite muddy and appear under-exposed to me. For instance, with advice from a pro photo lab, I would never even consider pushing any colour film, much less C200! If you were to look at the outdated box design, the budget price, the ubiquitous availability and the results it gives, it would be easy to conclude that Fujicolor C200 – or Fujicolor 200 as it’s known in some markets – is nothing special. I thought that the reason for this might be a failed development process ( I process my own C-41 ). Then I shot and developed the second roll and got the same results. A slight pink / magenta cast. I was extra careful with my development. I also developed another roll after this to see if the chemicals are starting to wear off. Does not look like it - next roll ( Kodak Ektar ) developed fine with no casts.
