CineStill is an ISO 800 Tungsten film that can be developed in normal C41 chemistry. Balanced for household lighting at 3200 K, this film is versatile, especially because it can be rated between ISO 200 - ISO 2000 according to the manufacturer. it is now available in medium format as well as (the original) 35mm.
You probably know that if you shoot with this Tungsten film in daylight conditions, you will need an 85B (orange) filter to lift it from 3200K to 5600K. Sadly, these are no longer available as screw in filters - but Cokin do a slot-in version in the P range. However, if you want to use it for studio photography, you can use Tungsten lights (which tend to be hotter but cheaper than daylight balanced lights) for the job.
CineStill is a repackaged and reworked Kodak Vision 3 500T 5219 movie film which will develop with standard C41 processes.

Features
Expiration: The new boxed CineStill film has an extended shelf life with less noticeable artifacts after expiration, but should be stored in the fridge and shot within 6 months of purchase to achieve optimal results. Exposed film should be processed promptly in C-41 chemistry to preserve latent image latitude and color fidelity. All current productions of CineStill have expiration dates for two years from manufacture date on the box. If you have earlier productions of 800T (no retail box) or your film does not have an expiration date, it is likely age fogged.
The second generation of CineStill film is now being produced! With an improved and refined process, 800Tungsten is producing superb result in standard C-41 chemistry!
Great rated ISO 200-2000! Can be pushed to 3000! Original fresh stock from Kodak Vision3 500T 5219 prepped and rolled for clean safe C-41 standard development as an ISO 800 film. May also still be processed in motion picture ECN-2 chemistry.
Our very custom 'Premoval' (patent-pending) process makes motion picture ( ECN2 / ECN-2 ) film safe to process in standard C-41 photo lab chemicals or at home.
Note: This film was designed to be processed in ECN-2 Chemicals and may still be processed in it's native chemistry. Test results show consistent in standard C-41 machine processing when compared with ECN-2 motion picture lab processing performed by professional labs. Long term archival stability has not been tested past 3 years. Expectations for archival longevity should be somewhere between Kodachrome and most C-41 films but there are no guarantees.
