Amber 800 35mm film is a new project from Reto - the company making waves with their innovation in analogue cameras and film!
Amber 800 is a motion picture film that gives distinct colours and looks when used in different lighting conditions!
It is excellent for low-light situations and becomes a cool blue tone if shot in daylight. It can be processed in standard C-41 colour chemistry - available at most labs.
This film is 27 exposures and not DX-coded. However it ships with a DX code sticker inside the canister - so if you're using an automatic camera then please affix the sticker on the film cassette before loading.
Please note that this film has been adapted by hand so you may experience some light leaks or other colour effects on your photos - especially with the first couple of frames on each roll ✨
Perfect for:Great All-Rounder, Landscapes, Street Photography, Creative/Abstract, Travel, Low light/Night
Midnight Film
Since it's 800 iso and tungsten balanced, it's pretty perfect for night setting photography. Pretty good.

For night owls
It's one more great film option for those who like shooting during the night. Lots of red hues and if you shoot during the day, it will be rather blue-ish. Definitely recommend.

Very vivid
And very cool. Perfect for some neon parties and bright places. Pretty good alternative to good old CineStill 800T.
Maybe it was just my experience but the film ended up having issues winding and when I took it to a specialist they said the film looks to have gone off/sticky. Was stored okay so not sure if a dud or just unlucky - the pictures that did come out looked very cool though.
Just got the scans back from a night-time stroll around Cambridge with a roll of Amber T800 in my Minolta Dynax 800si. After a bit of tweaking in Lightroom, I was extremely pleased with the results. Like CineStill, it behaves really nicely with lights, especially reds. Will definitely get some more if it becomes available :-)
