Kodak Ektar 100 is an ISO 100 color negative film developed using the C-41 process. Its exceptionally fine grain and high sharpness are paired with vivid colors and bold contrast, particularly in sunlit landscapes and cityscapes. Accurate exposure is important, as underexposure can cause detail in darker areas to be lost.

Film Characteristics
Best for Landscape: Greens in foliage, blue skies and other vivid natural colors stand out. Its fine grain and sharpness also help preserve distant details. Travel: It works well for colorful buildings, urban scenes and striking natural locations. It is most convenient to use in good daylight.
Look & feel Punchy: Saturated colors and strong differences between light and shadow produce a striking appearance. It can particularly emphasize red tones, which may be less flattering in portraits.
Lighting Bright daylight: Its ISO 100 speed is best suited to sunny outdoor subjects. In overcast weather or shade, a slower shutter speed, wider aperture or tripod may be necessary.
Color balance Daylight: Designed for natural daylight, but it can also be used with flash. Yellowish indoor lighting may cause colors to shift.
Grain Fine: Its extremely small, barely noticeable grain preserves excellent detail even in 35 mm format. Larger 120 negatives allow particularly detailed enlargements.
Contrast High: Bright and dark areas are clearly separated, with deeper shadows and pronounced outlines. This can create a striking appearance, especially in strong sunshine.
Color saturation High: It renders blues, greens and reds much more vividly than the more restrained Portra films. Colorful natural and urban subjects appear particularly rich.
