Well, I'm stuck in bed recovering from a minor operation. I've worked my way through a load of photography magazines and a few books including Art & Fear for the second time (great book by the way) and have been thinking of some new projects to work on in the autumn. For one of these projects I'm starting to seriously consider colour! Shock horror!
Other than digital, I've never seriously shot colour. This project will be portraits and I don't like the look of digital, so I'm thinking of firing up the Mamiya C220 TLR and loading up with colour neg film. However a quick check and there doesn't seem that much of a choice in 120 these days.
I'm after natural, maybe slightly subdued colours. It looks like it's either Portra 400NC, Portra 800 or Fuji 400H. 100 or 160 is too slow, as I may be shooting inside with natural light. Have I missed any film? Which one would you go for? I suppose I should just go and buy a load of each but they only seem to sell in 5 roll packs and I'm a tight so and so!
Cheers
Mike
