With a redesigned grain structure, this film offers cleaner, sharper images and smoother transitions. Ideal for both printing and high-quality lab scans with minimal editing.

Like your favourite colour films, Harman Phoenix II 35mm is processed using the standard C-41 method. So it's easy and fast for our lab to process, and easy to drop off with your usual film batch.

📷 Everyday Versatility
Whether you're capturing candid portraits, colourful travel scenes, or the quiet magic of the everyday, this film has your back. It's forgiving on exposure, consistent in results, and bursting with creative potential.

A good all rounder

A good all rounder film, I achieved some really interesting pops of colour during the summer heat wave in Windsor and some interesting cool tones to contrast with that. Enjoyed shooting with this and have ordered another. I feel like you may get stronger outcomes not using automatic settings. Another cracking film from Harman

Not sure, maybe it's a 100iso film

I found that the film was good if there's a ton of light, but I don't think it captures a ton of shadow detail. I like the blue/purple hue as a creative choice but there were blue spots in all my photos as seen below.

Halation Stations

Boy, this film is my guilty pleasure. I would always much rather a film stock that has character than a totally clean image. Why would we be shooting on film otherwise? Phoenix II is a tricky beast but easier to control than version one. It has much more latitude than the original and detail can be recovered from the shadows better than Opticolour 200. The grain is noticeable but I find it give your images a painterly quality. The highlights suffer from a magenta cast which can be tricky to remove but not impossible.

The star here is the halation. While, not everyone's cup of tea, it is really nice and soft. As an alternative to Cinestill, give this a go and you won't be disappointed if this effect is what you are looking for. I hope that this is an element of this stock that continues into the future iterations of the Phoenix because it's nice to have film stocks that are unashamedly film!

Slightly disappointed. Nothing wrong with grain and clarity, but converted to digital via photo as a negative in camera and converted to a positive via image processing using invert option. Blue skies seem to have a magenta shading. I'm unsure if that's the film or my colour conversion, but I've had better colour conversion results with other makes of film.

It is something

I have found this film to be usable I don't think I would choose it again myself as it seems to be a bit to grainy for my liking I also seem to have under exposed a fair bit it have just been a slightly dodgy lens.
