Did a roll of Pro Image in a lunch break up Wells Harbour instead of hitting the chippy.

Bracketed a bit on a dull day while my tummy rumbled and the seagulls looked my way expecting a treat.

The red of the pot buoys shot long on the back of the crab boat just sang with minimal tweaks in post.

Had a feeling it was a decent image, nearly walked back to the car and grabbed a DSLR to do it on so I could have have my chips and eat 'em straight away.

But I decided to savour the suspense and let the Wondies do the cooking.

Now I did experience some PDA - pre-development anxiety - after I'd popped the box in the post.

For Wondies' marketing whizz Emma says this stuff struggles on less-than sunny days in her video review.

And I didn't watch it until I'd actually shot two rolls on, um, less-than sunny days.

But the scans came back done to a turn and some of the wides also went down well in Wonderland by the look of things.

And while it wasn't too warm up Wells, there's just something nice and chilled about taking an hour out to shoot some film on a cloudy day by the harbour.

Even if it means skipping lunch.

Pro Image isn't quite as cheap as chips, which cost £3.75 for a standard portion from one of the chippies by the quay compared to 10 squid a roll.

But when you've had your chips that's your lot.

Whereas I'll probably buy this film again*.

*I went online to make that very purchase, but the Wondies had a Black Friday deal on Portra 160 so I binged on that instead...

Nice warm colours, ideal for travel, Exellent value for money. Used it on a short break to Greece, well pleased with the results.

Very impressed with the vibrant colours on this film. I think this film is basically a 100 speed version of Kodak Gold, but the grain is a lot finer. Reminds of the 100 speed films from the good old days. So I will definitely be shooting this again, as it sells for a very good price. Good for portraits and landscapes.

Primate disappeared for a few years and I thought my chance to try it had gone forever. However, it’s come back alive and kicking and so it was great to be able to get out and shoot some this summer. Some sample photos I had seen before had strange colour balance and this did carry over to some of my photos with a green hue quite evident. There were still strong blues and grain was sharp. I’m not sure I prefer this to Gold or Ultra Max, but for scenes with a lot of green I think this does perform better. And when it’s £9 a roll it certainly warrants giving it a go!

I've used this film both under sunny and overcast situations with different cameras and the results are just beautiful!
The colour renditions are absolutely gorgeous to my taste and the grain is super fine.
Excellent value for money
