Kate Winters: Portra 800, Party Boats and Finding Quiet
K
25:35Kate WintersGUEST
I see the Black Borders kind of popping up, but it's not.
K
25:38Kate WintersGUEST
It's very still like Noritsu, no Black Borders, you know, that kind of soft film visual identity.
K
25:44Kate WintersGUEST
Not so much like pushed Portra 400, Jose Vieira style.
K

And I think a big part of that is that people don't talk about film in all of its complexity.
T
45:27TomHOST
It's like you said before, when people shoot film, they either think it's about this point and shoot vibe that's kind of really loose and like underexposed and color shifty.
T
45:36TomHOST
Or it's about kind of like you said, the Noritsu look with that ready brown tone.

which is one of the larger film photography chain based in Paris and I actually visited them about two years ago and they showed me I met with the hardware engineer I met with the software engineer behind this and yes they are great people and I think this is one of the closest to being an alternative to Fuji Frontier or Noritsu scanners.
K
28:21Kimiyasu MorikawaGUEST
Yes, I think price is going to be one of the concerns, especially for smaller labs or individuals seeking into this.
K
28:29Kimiyasu MorikawaGUEST
But Frontier or Noritsu scanners also cost a lot of money.
K
28:35Kimiyasu MorikawaGUEST
Oh yeah,

and they have the maintenance problem.
R
32:41Raf LopesHOST
If it takes two weeks, three weeks, it already loses the heat of the excitement of like what I have to.

So to me, it's also the time it takes.
