My first roll of Harman’s new color film, Phoenix 200 was interesting.  I knew it was a contrasty , big grain emulsion but I was not expecting this.  I had it professionally developed at Bay Photo.  The scans were supper contrasty and saturation out the roof.  The samples above all had these features dialed down.  I don’t have the negatives in hand to do my own scanning - need to see if this is the fault of their scanning or just the emulsion.  To me this film has to be shot as if it were E-6 meaning that it doesn’t handle high contrast scenes well.  The large grain is neither good or bad - it’s just something you have to resign yourself to.  There’s no mistaking that the images were shot on film.
