HARMAN Phoenix 200 35mm Film: Embrace the Unexpected in Every Frame!

Step into the world of analogue creativity with HARMAN Phoenix 200, a revolutionary ISO 200 colour negative film from the folks that run the Ilford and Kentmere film brands. Crafted entirely from emulsion to cassette at the HARMAN technology factory in Mobberley, the Harman Phoenix film marks a significant milestone in the realm of analogue photography.

Features and Benefits:

1. Distinct 'Analogue' Look and Feel:
Immerse yourself in the unique charm of true analogue photography with the HARMAN Phoenix 200. The film captures moments with a distinct aesthetic, delivering an authentic look and feel that sets it apart from conventional colour films.

2. High Contrast and Vibrant Colours:
Elevate your images with high-contrast visuals and punchy, vibrant colours. The experimental nature of Phoenix 200 results in striking images, making it a perfect choice for those seeking a film that goes beyond the ordinary and embraces the unexpected.

3. Versatile ISO Range with Creative Flexibility:
With a DX coded cassette and a box speed of ISO 200, Phoenix offers creative flexibility by allowing you to rate it between ISO 100 and 400. This versatility opens up opportunities for experimentation in various lighting conditions, though optimal performance is achieved in good, consistent light.

Tips for the Best Results:

Ensure proper exposure by metering for mid tones to retain shadow or highlight detail, as over or underexposure may not be Phoenix’s friend.
Embrace the unexpected and relish in the quirks of this experimental film, from uniquely coloured negatives to chance encounters with coating anomalies

In every frame, HARMAN Phoenix 200 invites you to break free from expectations and savour the joy of capturing the unpredictable moments that make film photography a truly delightful experience.

Phoenix 200

I love the greens on this film, really brings out what is usually fairly boring landscape scenery (in my opinion). Really creates a moody atmosphere which is unique to this film. Obviously it's a 200 iso film so it's quite slow, not entirely ideal for darker lighting, but I've yet to try it and see. Love this film, hope more experimental, unique films like this are released.

Mixed results with this quirky film stock

Very saturated colours lend themselves well to certain compositons. I'm pleased with what I have shown here. I guess the subject matter lends itself well to what this film stock has to offer. All shot at box speed on an Olympus Trip 35 on 'Auto' at the railway sidings at Betws-y-Coed railway station (North Wales). I'm not sure I would use this film stock again to be honest. Not really my thing and quite expensive.

A really quirky film stock

I expected to get some quirky results from this film stock having read various reviews. I took this with me on a trip to Malaysia and shot at box speed on an Olympus Trip 35 on Auto. I was mostly pleased with some of the results and post the 'best' of what I took. The really saturated colours lend themselves well to certain compositions, but not to others. Also, the exposure seemed off, so maybe shooting on 'Auto' doesn't produce the best results.
I'm not sure I would use this film stock again. It's just not my thing, plus it is quite expensive.

Great in bright light

Excels in bright sunny days with some dramatic contrast. Harsh grain.

A remarkable film - in the right conditions.

I don't shoot a lot of colour film so,when Harman launched Phoenix, I thought I'd treat myself to a roll for a change. I shot most of the roll in Norfolk and on the Isle of Arran in Spring 2024 in a mixture of conditions. My first impression is that it gives VERY warm, rich colours and has a high inherent contrast. My most successful images were made in fairly dull, overcast conditions. Despite the challenges it presents I really like it and have bought some more rolls to use this autumn. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.
