Kodak Gold with a cheap on-camera flash is THE look of the 90s. Last time I tried Gold with flash I thought, "oh my gosh this looks like high school!!!" The photos immediately made me think of Nirvana and pagers and Fresh Prince and slap bracelets. I don't know what it is about how Gold responds to flash but it transforms in a really punchy but graceful kind of way.
Fuji Superia is god tier. It's almost perfect. I love your videos man. You're the main reason I got into Film. Keep doing you bro. The content never disappoints!
I always get too much green with it. Shooting at 300 gets better results. Nothing beats Ultramax 400 at box speed though, or Lomo 800 which is rebranded Kodak.
Been shooting a lot of Gold lately and loving it too! But on the east coast it’s been hard to come by, so when I see it or it comes in stock online I buy it up. Also on the east coast the only drug store film I come across on the rare occasions it’s in stock is Ultra Max 400. But it’s over priced and come in 24 exposures.
I agree…also I’m just not a fan of Ultra-Max. Love Kodak Gold, long as it’s daylight. For lowlight-that’s where the fine grain of Portra/Lomo comes in. I REALLY wish Walgreens would drop the UltraMac and start carrying Gold instead👍🏼
recently got the scans back for my very first two rolls of film. happy to say they turned out surprisingly well. your channel has been an amazing resource while learning the craft. glad you do what you do and pls keep it up brotha #MINOLTAGANG
I've been shooting with Gold for 3 months now and it's an absolute beast, made some beautiful pictures. There's one I've taken during night In a tunnel which had LED stripes on the sides of it and my friends where in the middle so it looks brilliant. The only con is that night photography is hard on it, but except that it's a BEAST
I love Kodak Gold because it is colorful and vibrant. It is also nostalgic for me. It was out of stock at B&H for a while so I ordered 70 rolls of Kodak Pro Image 100, which is now cheaper than Kodak Gold by about two dollars.
I think Gold and Ultramax give off what I call "family photo" vibes, i.e. they remind me of photo's you'd find in an older family album. That isn't a bad thing or an insult though. I love the vibes it gives and use it specifically in some situations for those feels.
my comfort film stock is fujicolor 200. I've shot every single possible thing with it, from concerts to bright day shoots. It works wonderfully and I know how to make it work since it's the one I've shot the most.
Personally I’d rather go with Fuji Superia 400 (and not for the convenience, if anything Kodak Gold 200 is more “convenient” since it’s cheaper and much easier to find, at least in Europe). This being said if I could go back in time I’d pick superia 200..
Those photos are amazing! I’ve been getting those packs of 3 Kodak gold 200 at Walmart for like a year or so. Definitely the most available film stock yet result is amazing
Currently (11-26-21) you can get Kodak Gold 200 at B and H. It's $10, up from $6.50 just two months ago. Kodak could do a better job of communicating with the film community, particularly people that supported them for decades and never switched to digital. The rise in prices and scarcity are shocking.
fortunately in my country (Indonesia) Kodak Gold is still around $6,65 (Rp 80k). a lot of film lab order it in a huge amount from Kodak (as far as i know) so yeah, it's still very cheap
Kodak gold rules, I’ve heard people call it mom emulsion haha cause it was the go to cheap film back in the day for family photos! Great video, always love to hear your opinion and regularly go back and watch your thrifting videos with envy as we don’t have those kind of stores here in Australia!!!! 😭😭
Out of all the consumer Kodak film stocks I honestly think my favorite is probably colorplus, it might not be the sharpest out of all of them but honestly I think it has the most pleasing and natural looking colors.
YES!! You just validated my feelings about Kodak Gold 200, I have definitely noticed that superia has a greenish yellow shift in my Pentax K1000, but with Kodak Gold the images are definitely warmer, which I agree looks GOOD to my eye. With a 50mm 1.4 wide open, the superia has this funky 1970's glam photo look, which can look kinda cool in a stylistic way. the Kodak Gold I thought looked great when I went to the lightner museum in St Augustine Florida on the sandstone and blue skies. It just fits warm summer scenes exactly like you want. Superia is at it's best with cooler season landscape scenes. I think it has something to do with your expectations of the color palette given the scenes. Warm tones are expected in warm scenes, more blue green in fall and winter. Mixing those up just looks... weird! Bang for the buck wise, it's really easy to get nice photos with Kodak Gold, I have yet to be disappointed by the pictures I get with it. It's a very forgiving film in that regard
I live in Phoenix and Kodak Gold makes for some beautiful photos for this desert climate, long as it’s daytime. Obviously it’s a faster speed, daylight balanced film, too grainy for lower light golden hour-that’s where the fine grain of Portra or Lomo come in. But for daylight shooting Gold is my go-to👍🏼
Kodak Gold 200 is great, but for me the consumer film that I've been in love with is actually Kodak Colorplus 200. I'd love to hear your thoughts on it!!
Hi again from Spain, KingJvpes! So great to hear about your thoughts on this film, in fact I discovered its potential some rolls ago and I totally agree! I love it! The point is here in Spain there’s no problem to find Kodak Gold, Portra, or Ektar. The problem comes when you try to get some Fuji C200 (which I personally love) that was a cheap film (it was available everywhere three of four years back for less than 5€/$) but it isn’t anymore, it’s very hard to find anywhere and the prices have risen up to 10€!! These price increases are going to make me back to digital 😰😰! Well, thanks for your videos again!!
I always have Gold in my Olympus Point and shoot for my everyday carry. I grew up with gold when my parents would ask me to buy it from the film store everytime and would specifically ask for Gold 200 Love the film most especially now that Kodak is increasing again.
Love Gold too, a friend recommended it when I started and reffered to it as "poor man's Portra", my favourite colour stock closely followed by colourplus. If I need something for special shots I go to Portra 160. 🤓👍
Yeees! I've been saying this for the longest time. I'll take Kodak Gold over Ultramax any day. Here in Portugal I can still get a triple pack for 21 dollars. Which is real nice, but there seems to be a scarcity at the moment
Colour plus is more true to colour. Gold has warmer colour cast. Iso 200 is definitely limited in low light situations. Just bought 10pk colour plus, so cheap and so available 😊
whenever i see a title like this pray tha its a cheap one since kodak gold in germany went from 6.99 for 3 to 19.99 for 3 this year. but it seems like i cant get away from kodak, then again there film stocks are just beautiful
Kodak gold was my first film stock and have shot about 4 rolls since I stared shooting film about half a year ago. It's pretty great even though I've grown to like c200 more in the end
After I clear out my film archive to a folder to free up space, I found out that I didn't shoot Kodak Gold for 10 years now, the last time I shoot with it is probably early 2014 as far as I remember but I still didn't found my archive from that time using Kodak Gold. My impression at the time is that I don't think it's a particular good film compare to more expensive professional film which I am more amazed by them, Kodak Gold have somewhat tough grain, high contrast, and a bit vibrant picture with yellow tint, which I don't particularly like at the time and it's a film my father always buy back when in was in my childhood, when I found a store that sell more expensive film, I try those film and never go back unless I just want to shoot just for testing the camera and didn't want to care about the picture. Maybe I have some prejudice but I to this day I still have a feeling that I don't want to shoot cheap film, the only cheaper film I shoot time to time is Kodak ProImage 100 and sometime Fuji either 100 200 or 400 but I rarely do though not to the point of not shooting with it at all like I do with Kodak Gold and ColorPlus.
If I shoot colour negative film I shoot Kodak. Kodak Ektar. Back in the day I've shoot Kodak Gold. But the one of ISO 100. Beautiful colours, same warm tones but without any green or magenta tint, good DR and good, small grain, albeit a bit larger than Fuji Superia 100 which was awesome and my No.1 colour negative film. And these days both of those films are discontinued, f***...
…stop making videos like this. Portra 160 or 400 is much better (more sharpness and less gran, more color accuracy) than Gold. You (youtubers and bloggers) just raise the price in an unjustified way, as has already happened for compact cameras (T4 / T5; T2; T3; Big mini etc).
7:25 30 DOLLARS?????!?!? god damn i need to stock up, a 3pack in my local drugstore was around 4-6 bucks. Also, you prices seem worse in general. I pay 12,50 euro for a roll of portra, so if i have to decide between 10 bucks gold or 12 bucks portra, I'm going for portra
Need give Superia (any of them, 200/400/800) about 1/3 to 2/3 stop under rating and it shines. When Superia is underexposed its one of the ugliest films there is IMO. When it's slightly overexposed it's exquisite. (It'll take a full stop or a more but not nearly as well as 400H or Portra, but I like it's look better than those. Been a lot of years since I shot Gold though... I'd say I should give it a run but prices have gone nuts for it (all film I suppose but it hurts).
I expected him to bring up Portra, surprised with Gold 200, the first film i shot with and yeah it's got that childhood vibes, now trying out Portra and Afgaphoto B&W with my A-1 but yeah Gold 200 is always there in the T50
I would not agree with the neutral look of kodak gold, that neutral look had Fuji 400 pro H with an extra coating but that's a whole different story. Personally, I love warmer tones by Kodak these are my all-time favourite
Make your shots count eh! I rate this at 100 and meter for the shadows! As I rate all film at half box speed its all slow! Tripod and or monopod! Or an F100 or some such and stabilised Jones's. Doesn't need to be expensive.
Love your work man. But for gods sake, can you just get to the point. Beating around the bush isn’t for your viewers. We’re are all mainly adults interested in what you have to say. We’re not children and the suspense doesn’t work well with us
For me ultramax is a bit too blue. The ultramax photos I took got that slight bluish feel comparing to gold. Because of that, ultramax gave me a cool tune feeling.
Lol looks like the world ran out of this film stock right after you posted this. I love gold200, but all of my orders have been on backorder for the last 4 months
I always preferred Kodak film over Fuji as Fuji does tend to have that cold colour cast and more muted colours rather than warm/neutral tones that Kodak has. I do hope that we start getting more variety of film stocks in stores but not sure that'll happen anytime soon.
Kodak Gold was obscenely cheap here in Germany until recently. You could pick up a three-pack for 7.90 euros in a drugstore. Recently they've upped the prices to 18 euros, more than 100% increase. Still relatively cheap in comparison with other colour films but I feel a bit ripped off paying so much more than what I was paying just six months ago. Anyway, it's a film that has grown on me a bit because I didnt like it at first (it's pretty crap when it's not sunny). Still, I think I prefer Colorplus when it comes to cheaper Kodak.
It is my go to film, it is readily available in Walmart up here in Canada. I would recommend checking them out down there. I love how it renders blue, especially blue skies. I used to be able to get it for $12.99 cdn for three packs, it has gone up to $16.99cdn and expect it to go higher in January.
Great clip, great Channel! I come from Germany and we get 3 Kodak gold rolls for 16$ in some stores for 10$ ist unbelievable. But it’s super hard to get other Films like the Lomo or anything without Kodak gold, ultra max and B&W Film
Sad and funny that film have gotten so expensive we’re turning to Gold and trying to make the best of it. I started film photography 8-9 years ago. Back then I was able to get portra 400 for $5, c200 or colorplus 200 for $2, and Velvia for ~$7. That’s also when a contact t2 was $200-300, before airhead Kendall Jenner had to go and open her mouth about it. I also started with gold so nothing wrong with it.> def does give that nostalgic childhood feel and balanced overall as long as it’s exposed well. In short, once you start to get too creative with it it’ll fight back :)
Kodak Gold FTW!!! $18(canadian) for 3x24 rolls at Walmart. I've only spotted Superia at one drugstore chain here and it's $40 for 3 rolls... No thanks! B&H, Moment, etc have Gold, but it's always sold out... Film problems...🤣🤦♂️
hi i have been shooting with Kodak Gold since more than 10 years. I bougth them at CVS pharmacy , Wallgreens ,B&H .. when i was in summer vacations in US . Vey good color film for various photos .
Kodak Gold is my top as well for now. I know this is an old vid and maybe you have a more recent vid changing this again but I'll ask are you still shooting gold? My only real issue is that locally I can only find the 24 exposure gold which is fine but those extra 12 shots make me reach for Superia more often than I'd like because I really do prefer gold for a everyday film.
I think the price hike of film in the last 2 yrs is disgusting and the coming raise is another slap in the face. I understand inflation but these prices are ridiculous. There's no reason besides greed. If there's a shortage There's a shortage. Raising the price doesn't magically solve it. And with more people buying and shooting film, why mess up a good thing. This makes film really unappealing. I hope black and white can stay down but even that has risen significantly in just one year. I love film photography so much. It'd be sad to someday only shoot black and white on my digital mirrorless. All because companies got greedy. Because all my Polaroid land cameras are now display pieces since fp100c got ridiculous in price. Portra is already ridiculous. And all others are not far behind. Personally I love all film even the so-called lower end films. I find them beautiful in their own ways. But videos like this create demand and then price hikes. Which is sad because in you guys they have free advertisements daily on the gold they produce. It's just sad. I hope it changes for the better but am glad I have about 60 rolls of so many different types of film stocks.
Hmm ill have to shoot some. Normally i shoot color digital and B&W film. I was a long time lover of Fuji Acros 100. When that went away, i stayed with kodak porta. Good vid. Ill add this to my rotation.

Kodak Gold is also hard to come by at the moment.

ColorPlus 200 -- a tad warmer. Reminds me of summer vacation 8mm home movies (Kodachrome!) in the 1970's!!!!!
I love Kodak Gold because it is colorful and vibrant. It is also nostalgic for me. It was out of stock at B&H for a while so I ordered 70 rolls of Kodak Pro Image 100, which is now cheaper than Kodak Gold by about two dollars.

Way Back When Kodak Gold Was Cheap and Ubiquitous.
@Francisco Haladjian up until 5 years ago kodak gold was $4 a roll, now its like 3x that...
it gets very yellow if you shoot Gold indoors, it's a very daylight dependent stock. My secret sauce to shooting Gold is to slap an 82A filter on it
Hey just wondering if you have any examples of how this looks with with an 82a filter?
@@Fist2dawrist I do! Cause that’s how I shoot Gold, but it’s really nothing special, the filter only helps correct the white balance.
my comfort film stock is fujicolor 200. I've shot every single possible thing with it, from concerts to bright day shoots. It works wonderfully and I know how to make it work since it's the one I've shot the most.

I live in Phoenix and Kodak Gold makes for some beautiful photos for this desert climate, long as it’s daytime.

In Australia, film is only at big W or camera stores. Very sad. Would love it at convenience stores
Fuji Superia 400 -> Lomo 800 -> Kodak Gold 200.

I bought 6 rolls of Gold yesterday. 18€/3 Rolls. It’s been cheaper some months ago!
I was really expecting it to be ColorPlus. A'ight well Gold ain't too far off either. xD
I had a feeling it would be Gold when i cicked on the video! My all time favourite 35mm film!
I walked into a Walgreens and found a couple rolls of Gold in the photo department.

I was always taught the color of the brand is emphasizing the tone of the film
What’s a good film stock to shoot in The Philippines 🇵🇭? I’m going to Manila, Tacloban, Eastern Samar and Palawan.

…stop making videos like this. Portra 160 or 400 is much better (more sharpness and less gran, more color accuracy) than Gold.
You (youtubers and bloggers) just raise the price in an unjustified way, as has already happened for compact cameras (T4 / T5; T2; T3; Big mini etc).
7:25 30 DOLLARS?????!?!?
god damn i need to stock up, a 3pack in my local drugstore was around 4-6 bucks.
Also, you prices seem worse in general. I pay 12,50 euro for a roll of portra, so if i have to decide between 10 bucks gold or 12 bucks portra, I'm going for portra
Need give Superia (any of them, 200/400/800) about 1/3 to 2/3 stop under rating and it shines. When Superia is underexposed its one of the ugliest films there is IMO. When it's slightly overexposed it's exquisite. (It'll take a full stop or a more but not nearly as well as 400H or Portra, but I like it's look better than those. Been a lot of years since I shot Gold though... I'd say I should give it a run but prices have gone nuts for it (all film I suppose but it hurts).
I expected him to bring up Portra, surprised with Gold 200, the first film i shot with and yeah it's got that childhood vibes, now trying out Portra and Afgaphoto B&W with my A-1 but yeah Gold 200 is always there in the T50
Fun fact, the new Fujicolor 200 is just rebranded Kodak Gold 200 and often at a lower price. Rest in peace Fuji Superia.
Thats my go to film and available always at walmart
I would not agree with the neutral look of kodak gold, that neutral look had Fuji 400 pro H with an extra coating but that's a whole different story. Personally, I love warmer tones by Kodak these are my all-time favourite
Make your shots count eh! I rate this at 100 and meter for the shadows! As I rate all film at half box speed its all slow! Tripod and or monopod! Or an F100 or some such and stabilised Jones's. Doesn't need to be expensive.

For me ultramax is a bit too blue. The ultramax photos I took got that slight bluish feel comparing to gold. Because of that, ultramax gave me a cool tune feeling.
I'm not sure why anyone would shoot lanscapes with Gold instead of Ektar or Velvia but each to their own.
I also shoot Kodak Gold off and on. It's good to try several before loading up on just one kind. I kind of like the gold.
Why buy it on Amazon instead of supporting a photography business to keep it alive?

I was like dam. He hyping it up, what is it kodak gold 200 or something 😅😂
Everybody jocks gold…. And it’s honestly poo compared to pro image.
Hey man, it’s been 2 years. You still shooting with this? 🤔🤷♂️
I always preferred Kodak film over Fuji as Fuji does tend to have that cold colour cast and more muted colours rather than warm/neutral tones that Kodak has. I do hope that we start getting more variety of film stocks in stores but not sure that'll happen anytime soon.
Kodak Gold was obscenely cheap here in Germany until recently. You could pick up a three-pack for 7.90 euros in a drugstore. Recently they've upped the prices to 18 euros, more than 100% increase. Still relatively cheap in comparison with other colour films but I feel a bit ripped off paying so much more than what I was paying just six months ago. Anyway, it's a film that has grown on me a bit because I didnt like it at first (it's pretty crap when it's not sunny). Still, I think I prefer Colorplus when it comes to cheaper Kodak.
It‘s 12.95 at DM, which is still not bad.
Waited for him to quit rambling on to just finally say 200 Gold and I was right
thats funny becaused in germany u cant really find fuji in any drugstore but kodak gold in every single one
It is my go to film, it is readily available in Walmart up here in Canada. I would recommend checking them out down there. I love how it renders blue, especially blue skies. I used to be able to get it for $12.99 cdn for three packs, it has gone up to $16.99cdn and expect it to go higher in January.
I was pissed when I saw the three pack go up a buck at my local Walmart too! Haha
Now we pay that for one roll of portra ffs
You meant Fuji C200, right? :D
A clickbait title for Kodak gold... Must be out of things to talk about.
You can find out the film stock at 2:38. It's Kodak Gold 200.
Kodak gold has been around for years long before digital photography
This the only Kodak film were about to be able to afford in 2022 lol
My fridge is filled with Kodak gold (in packs of 3)
Oh wow, in Germany a 3-Pack is 8€ 😱 everybody shoots it here. It recently went up to 13€ but is still a no brainer 😍
Yeah 8 euros was SO good. It's now like 17-18 in DM :(
Actually I see that it's 13 online. In store I've only seen it for around 18.
Last month I bought it at the DM store and it was 13€…
@@fIysohigh oh really? Every DM I’ve been in in Berlin (only about 3 stores) since the price rise it’s always been something like 17.90. Strange
I bought it last week in the drug store for 13
You are close to freestyle in San Jose you should be able to get the lomo film there
IME Fuji always gave artificial colour, almost electronic. I used to regularly use Agfachrome or Ektachrome instead. Agfa CT-100 was superb.
Great clip, great Channel! I come from Germany and we get 3 Kodak gold rolls for 16$ in some stores for 10$ ist unbelievable. But it’s super hard to get other Films like the Lomo or anything without Kodak gold, ultra max and B&W Film
Noooooo I’ve been keeping this baby secret for a year now lol
I'm a newbie... Does fuji film camera comes with both Digital and Analog version???
Film is analog; digital is digital.
I'm happy I get kodak gold for 20$ cad for 3 rolls
Gold is going to be 13 dollars in january, yeeet
people keep saying Lomo 800 is actually Kodak Gold 800 repacked, if that's true it can explain a lot yeah
Sad and funny that film have gotten so expensive we’re turning to Gold and trying to make the best of it. I started film photography 8-9 years ago. Back then I was able to get portra 400 for $5, c200 or colorplus 200 for $2, and Velvia for ~$7. That’s also when a contact t2 was $200-300, before airhead Kendall Jenner had to go and open her mouth about it. I also started with gold so nothing wrong with it.> def does give that nostalgic childhood feel and balanced overall as long as it’s exposed well. In short, once you start to get too creative with it it’ll fight back :)
Kodak Gold FTW!!! $18(canadian) for 3x24 rolls at Walmart. I've only spotted Superia at one drugstore chain here and it's $40 for 3 rolls... No thanks! B&H, Moment, etc have Gold, but it's always sold out... Film problems...🤣🤦♂️
KODAK GOLD 200 is hard to find now :D
hi i have been shooting with Kodak Gold since more than 10 years. I bougth them at CVS pharmacy , Wallgreens ,B&H .. when i was in summer vacations in US . Vey good color film for various photos .
It’s cheaper today than in the eighties when I started.
No one tell this man about pro image 100.
Dude today I was in a camera store here in the UK and they were selling fuji superia 400 for GBP 12.99 a roll! That's 17 DOLLARS!!!!
Anyone else struggling to find colour film?
Kodak Gold is my top as well for now. I know this is an old vid and maybe you have a more recent vid changing this again but I'll ask are you still shooting gold? My only real issue is that locally I can only find the 24 exposure gold which is fine but those extra 12 shots make me reach for Superia more often than I'd like because I really do prefer gold for a everyday film.
I think the price hike of film in the last 2 yrs is disgusting and the coming raise is another slap in the face. I understand inflation but these prices are ridiculous. There's no reason besides greed. If there's a shortage There's a shortage. Raising the price doesn't magically solve it. And with more people buying and shooting film, why mess up a good thing. This makes film really unappealing. I hope black and white can stay down but even that has risen significantly in just one year. I love film photography so much. It'd be sad to someday only shoot black and white on my digital mirrorless.
All because companies got greedy.
Because all my Polaroid land cameras are now display pieces since fp100c got ridiculous in price. Portra is already ridiculous. And all others are not far behind. Personally I love all film even the so-called lower end films. I find them beautiful in their own ways. But videos like this create demand and then price hikes. Which is sad because in you guys they have free advertisements daily on the gold they produce. It's just sad. I hope it changes for the better but am glad I have about 60 rolls of so many different types of film stocks.
Hmm ill have to shoot some. Normally i shoot color digital and B&W film. I was a long time lover of Fuji Acros 100. When that went away, i stayed with kodak porta. Good vid. Ill add this to my rotation.
If you can't find kodak gold in box; dubble film's "daily" stock is just Kodak gold
As late as early 2020 you could buy Koda GOLD 200 3-Pcks here for 7.99, now they go for 17.99, which is just hard to take. Still a great stock.
Me when Fuji Superia is discontinued 😢
