Hey! It's Fuji C200! A cheap and cheerful favourite. Please excuse the deterioration of some of the quality in the photos due to compression, but hopefully this gives you all a taste for some of the potential of this great budget film 😁
You get a free roll of C200 everytime you drop off a roll to develop at Digi Life cannington. You mentioned you were from Perth, so i thought i would comment. BTW, i love the C200 too. Couldn't agree more!
I can recommend to push it to 400. Will give you a nice tonality and also some grain.
Please compare c200 vs Gold 200, both are equally cheap in germany, but you get the Kodak in every Drugstore
Might just do that some time! have plenty of both, but need to shoot more kodak gold.
its criminal that this channel only has 15k subs
Thanks Mr Vandelay! Maybe we should employ latex salesmen 😁
The Fuji C200 andKodak Ultramax are my go-to budget films. Both look really nice! I prefer them to the more common Fuji Supra and Kodak Gold. I really like the Kodak ProImage too for slower speed stuff.
I love cheap film 🎞 for both point and shoot 📸 Try using a magic marker and fill in the bar code on the film canister! It will default to the lowest ASA your point and shoot will shoot at (100ASA) with your FujiFilm C200 next time around Hashen! Great job and I look forward to your next video
Yeah! The DX code hack trick hahah... have done that a few times, but other times you just don't have the time or the marker 😂
The significant only difference between "cheap" film and "pro" film is the batch consistency. There are no bad films nowadays just choose one that you like.
Nice results with the C200.. I think I might have to go back to it because of this vid! My go-to 200 ISO film is Kodak Colorplus...
Gotta love Colorplus, it's warmer and softer, but a different look for a different mood 😁
Great video! C200 is one of my favorite films, along with ColorPlus 200. I find these budget films to lack the latitude of more premium film, so I personally stick to box speed. However, I still normally expose for the shadows, unless I want to try and preserve highlight detail. But, great results!
I’ve been trying to find what films I want to take on my honeymoon to Iceland. C200 might be one of my choices now
it's not easy to find a colour neg film that favours red, thanks for this
Thanks for watching!
Fuji C200 is a great value film. Unsure how much longer it will be available though as Fuji seems to be gradually getting out of film production - that's why I tend to shoot Kodak and Ilford mostly these days.
Yeah, i was thinking the same as you... i've a bunch of C200 in the fridge but with Fuji rising prices like crazy, i'll not buy it anymoreµ. i'm now shooting Ilford and Foma for BW and mostly Lomography for color (color négative 100, 400 and 800 and Xpro Slide)
Great photos and videos. Love those Aussie post pictures, nostalgia.
I was just shooting my first roll of this wonderful film! I can’t wait to see the results
Nice review. Love the film too, has to be the best value going. Having watched this I tried rating the film at 100 and exposing the shadows. Having shot a number of rolls like this I have to say this tends to result in overexposure for me. Whilst the film looks nice overexposed slightly, I now prefer to shoot it rated at box speed, still exposing the shadows.
This sounds like a more sensible approach 😁
Amazing video and photos... i have to admit i used to overlook this film!!! Not anymore!!! 🤘🤘🤘
Thanks! yeah it's not even sold in all regions so it seems to be less known that the kodaks
Cheers for the review, it's time I stock up some colour neg film (all I have is B&W), I haven't tried this film yet look forward to trying it out.
Nice! hope you get some good shots
Nice one Hashem! 👌 Simply love the Fuji reds! Have you tried pushing C200? Had it pushed two stops and didn't expect anything good but was pleasantly surprised by the results! 🤗
Hey Robin, thanks! Yeah the Fuji reds show quite well :-) I havent tried pushing it, but if i need the speed I might next time. You shot it at 800? I'd be keen to see the results you had
@@pushingfilm You'll be able to see the results in a future HIS video. 🤗
@@therealsirrobin Sweet! you've really upped the game with the HIS videos by the way... frequency, amount of locations, cameras/films, b-roll, editing... and naturally the shots are always good. Looking forward to more
A few years ago, the local 99¢ store would sell repackaged c200 for 99¢ a 24exp roll. I must of bought 3 bricks worth. I wonder if they still carry it. 🤔
Agfa Vista 200? They no longer sell it in the cheap stores here in England :(
Thank you for the video!
It would be nice to see two photos next to each other from the same camera, one is pulled another one is at box speed to note the difference.
Thanks for watching! Yes agreed, I didn't have enough comparable shots unfortunately, and it wouldn't have been fair to put shots from a point & shoot side by side with sharp voigtlander lenses on the Nikon 😅 Next time 👍
@@pushingfilm Yes, agreed! However, very good content! Thank you for respond as well.
Love C200! For day-to-day, out and about shooting it performs really well. Especially when you take into account that in the UK you can easily get it for under £3 a roll!
Yes!
Hey man where do u get your film and where do u get your films printed I'm In the UK too and where I'm based printing film is so expensive I'm tryna cut costs 😅
Not anymore 👎🏻 your looking at £7.99 if you can find it in store or £9.99 online
Definitely going to pick some of this up! Incredible
I'm agree with you , it's the best cheap film ever !
Perfect song selection, flashbacks to the days when real music was made :D Also: C200 is after Portra 400 my favorite film!
Thanks Joka, pushing films started using my music about six months ago. its great seeing comments like this and seeing my music being put out there. if you want to check out more, just type in Massroom on any streaming service :)
Thanks! Yes, Portra 400 is a beautiful film indeed 😀
@@karlosdean1650 Hey! Good to see you here man, people do love the music and it's my pleasure to get more people listening 😁
@@pushingfilm i never shot portra 800 yet tho, have to do that soon :D
@@pushingfilm Hey Bro, Really liking the photos. Yeah I've only just made a TH-cam account haha, so will be uploading stuff soon. Thanks for messaging me, it's been so cool Watching your videos with my music and learning a lot about film,
at 4:11, you mention you overexpose the shot by 1 stop and metered for the shadows and i wanted to ask what you meant by that in terms of what setting you put into the camera ? im new to film photography and this overexposing stops topic has me a bit confused lol. maybe a future video tutorial would be great :) I genuinely appreciate your content by the way, one of my favorite TH-cam channel on film photography, thank you for creating this content !
Great review Hash. Love the colour of this film. I’m comparing some cheap film with Kodak colour plus 200, Iro and hillvale atm.
Thanks Kylie! Yeah its pretty nice. I really like colorplus as well. Hillvale holiday and IRO 200 are the same thing; repackaged Fuji Superia 200 (also nice! -more magenta cast and contrast/saturation)
@@pushingfilm ahh cool thanks for letting me know. That's why I love the colours haha.
The price for C200 is through the roof here in Germany at the moment, if you can even get your hands on some. I'm a beginner and will have to buy my first roll at 9€ (14 AUD)
That's crazy, it used to be way cheaper :-(
Love old films..
Good to see photos from Lalbagh Fort (Bangladesh) :D
Enjoyed this. Sat next to a box of 24 rolls. Can’t wait for my canon p to arrive
Great review and photos 😊😍 I love Fuji C200
C200, love it, just like the agfa vista!
Wow, when sorting by popularity at Walkens House of Film it is the least popular! If I shoot that I will be even less mainstream! *puts film straight into cart*
Hey, that's probably because they were sold out for a while and got back in stock shortly after I released this video!
I am Fan of the C200, too. I really like it. Also the Xtra400 or Agfa rolls.
I heard a rumour that Fuji is discontinuing more 35mm types of colour negative film. 🤨 The downside to film is not the cost of the film but the cost of developing it. Between £15 to £20 a roll in the United Kingdom with prints and £10 for develop with tiny jpeg scans.
i dont know what i hate more, the ugly and muddy greens of C200 in the shadows or the excessive pink hues in the highlights of agfa vista... guess we'll just have to deal with the yellow blandness that is kodak colorplus for the rest of time.
great job btw, at least you properly highlighted the good and bad points, in the end no film is perfect ^_^
Absolutely right, i use this film time to time and i have nothing bad to say about it... suscribed to your channel !
Thank you! Appreciate it :-D
Thank you for making this
I have a few of this film in my fridge, now I wanna go out and shoot some... too bad it’s winter where I live so not much greens 😅 thanks for the video!
Find some reds and neutrals!
Pushing Film will do!
I love this film but sometimes its a bit more grainy than I'd like. I usually shoot a lot of colourplus or c200 for my 200iso films. I'll be sure to stock up on some c200 the next time prices drop!
with these shots, when you pulled to 100 did you develop the film as you would with 100? or you did it as 200 to keep the over-exposure?
Shot at 100 and developed normally, so no pull processing
@@pushingfilm thanks!
Hi, great video! You mention how you wouldn´t necessarily use C200 for street photography, and I wonder, why is that? What do you look for in a film for street photography and what films would you recommend?
Hey thanks! I would generally use something higher speed for street between ISO 400-1600, but still enjoy occasionally using low speed films on the street because they can tend to have great colours. For example: Kodak Ektar, slide films, etc can work brilliantly on the streets.
Hey! Do you have an example of how the fuji 200 positive looks like with the film "frame"? I always see photos with the Kodak portra 400 film frame, but I have never seen a Fuji 200 photo with the film frame. Great video!
I don't sorry! That would be possible though, might cover it in a future video
Mate, you live in Perth??? I freakin love your videos I wish I could meet you some time :)))))
Thanks man! no I dont, but I'm originally from there so head back every now and then to visit family :-D
Wow that’s awesome! Yeah I was kinda surprised to see another film shooter in Perth
@@PaulN1237 haha yeah, but you should check out shootswithcoops channel if you haven't already.
I sure will man thanks for that, appreciate it 👍
Hi... Film shooter from Perth too!
Stax Record music😍
Great video. I have a doubt about expired film rolls could be usable? If yes, what's the camera settings to be adjusted to get correct exposure? Waiting for your reply. Because I have few unused film rolls can be usable! Thanks in advance..
What year are they expired?
@@pushingfilm Hi, its year of 2010 expiry. Same Fuji film 200 iso.
@@paramankumaresan2678 I would suggest shooting it as 100 iso
3:40 is amazing omg
I'm a Nikon user as well and I'd just like to know what lenses you used in the images featured here!
Except for a couple of shots, all were on Voigtlander lenses; 40mm Ultron f/2, and 58mm Nokton f/1.4
@@pushingfilm No wonder some of the shots look familiar. I got a used Voigtlander 58 for my dad's F3. There's no distributor where I'm from though so I can't find the 40mm or the 28mm anywhere.
Check out the classic Zeiss 35mm f2 and Makro Planar 50mm f2 as well. The latter is my dream normal lens.
Great video by the way. I'd love to see you do reviews on Gold 200 and Pro Image 100. Not much organised information out there.
I wanna see more videos of you reviewing film! Gunna use these photos for reference when I edit mine. Do you have a website where we can download the photos in this video?
Hey! I dont, but there are a few on our instagram in a post about this film :-)
i dont consider c200 as "cheap" it still cost me hkd 30 few bucks but it a great a film
the true cheap film for me is kodak color plus
Oh, here they're both the same price, except C200 comes in multipacks which work out cheaper than Colorplus (also a very nice film)
Hey, how did you compensate for the magenta-green color imbalance which seems rampant in the C200? Your photos look good.
Hey, I didn't really experience that in my rolls!
Thanks for the video! Just got a roll of this and my first camera (Canon FT QL), and was wondering - if I shoot with this at ASA/ISO 100 on my camera, do I then have to tell the lab that develops the photos that I did this? Can I shoot some of the roll at default ISO 200 and some at 100? Also; in the portrait with the denim jacket against the ocean, did you meter for the shadows and was it shot at 100 as well?
No need to tell the lab anything! just develop normally :-) You can definitely shoot some at 100 and some at 200, it'll be interesting to try and spot any difference for you so try and make notes on your phone or something. Yes, that photo was shot as you described!
@@pushingfilm Thanks!
in China it's 2.5 per roll
Great images! I have some rolls of this film lying around. Eager to go out and shoot it!
You mentioned you shoot it overexposed by 1 stop. Do you develop as if it were shot at 200ASA or do you shorten development time?
Thanks
Thanks! I develop as if it were 200. Have fun shooting it!
Hi! I have a Canon EOS 750, my dad bought it back in the 90s and it works on film and battery. Do you think this film would work well with it? And what battery would be good to use?
Thank you!
Hi,
Nice video.
Did you do any post processing after you received the pictures from the labs or did they turn out just the way they are shown in the video?
I have been meaning to expose c200 to ISO 100 just to see what results I can get out of it.
Your opinion would be nice to hear.
Cheers!
Hey! depending on the scan, I either don't do anything, or, some basic adjustments to the color and contrast to bring it to a level I'm happy with. Especially if I feel like the scan didnt represent the white balance correctly or badly set white/black points.
You overexpose this film by decreasing the ISO to 100, would it be the same if instead of that you overexpose it by opening the aperture one step ( or turning the shutter speed dial one step )?
Sorry for my english
You shoot at 100 iso for the c200, if i use a light meter, i set it at 100 or at 200 ? 100 too ? you make me doubt 😅
Yep, 100!, so basically just pretend the film is "Fuji 100"
May I ask, why doesn't my light meter work everytime i change my ISO not according to the real ISO number. For example I tried to set it to 100. Then, how do you push the film by 1 stop? Im using minolta xgm. Thanks!
Great review. In Mexico we get it for 3 USD :)
What did you shoot the petrol station at? F8?
About f4-5.6
Please dont make the pictures smaller. I know its propably because of the low res, but its hard to see them properly on a phone
drink every time he says again
when you meter do you always meter for the shadow? and do you use an external meter?
so 200 ISO films are better to be used outside in a sunny day, or maybe cloudy?
Either should be fine, if you use the appropriate shutter speed and aperture :-)
Should I set my film camera shutter speed to 200 or close To match the film???
Hey, no need to do that! I have a video called film camera settings for beginners that explains why and how to choose those settings 👍🏼
I looooove c200! :D
C200 loves Matthew Lee
Hi. I have bad English but i hope you will understand. I have a Question. You shoot C200 on 100 ISO. I get it but what is next? How do you develop it? Thank you!
Hi, just develop as you normally would.
ayy where in perth is it good to take photos?
I'm not sure why, but for me looks better when a 400 is overexposed
Did you visited Dhaka?
Yes 🙂
what shutter speed has been on the night shots ?
try overexpose it 1/3 of a stop rather than a whole stop
Why do you shoot it at iso100 rather than iso200?
Change your camera's ISO setting to 100 rather than keeping at 200 ISO.
Do you shoot it at iso 100 too?
Shannen Torres my apologies, clearly did no read your question properly. I think he over exposes it for more saturated colors. And no, I never used this film. But I will buy it over the Kodak equivalent and try decreasing the ISO to see the results.
What's the intro song?
It's by a great artist called Massroom as linked in the description. The intro song is on the album "Beat Tape", give it a listen on soundcloud.
did u push this film?
Do you remember the parameters that you used in the shell photo at night?
No, processed normally. I don't remember exactly, but it was about 5.6, 4-8 seconds :)
@@pushingfilm Thank you!
How much can you push it?
I've never tried, but @the_real_sir_robin mentioned he has successfully pushed 2 stops
You shot the roll at ISO 100, that is not pushing, that is pulling the speed. Pushing to one stop would be ISO 400. Why not shoot this as I shot it which is push to one stop, and and slightly under a half a stop-but process Normal..... I shoot both Fuji and Kodak 200 & 400, but alas no AGFA, It's gone but it goes to red shift when scanning.
I never said I was pushing it, "Pushing Film" is just the name of our channel, its a play on words :D What I did isn't "pulling" either (that is done in processing, ie. under-developing) I simply overexpose and develop normally. Underexposing your film and developing normally isn't pushing also; pushing is done in development (longer time in the developer)
