★★★★☆

Excellent for Indoor to use whit multiple flashes. Outdoor I prefer 100 ASA. Fuji Superia 400 has good grain, quality, colors and price.

★★★★★

Although it's an ASA400, Fuji Superia 400 film is great for outdoors with low light or if you need small apertures (high f/) to get good depth of focus.
Pictures taken at the beach and open parks and gardens are very colourful.
It's a great "all-weather" compared to its "slower brother" Superia 100.

“I have been using Superia 400 ASA XTRA as one of my...”

★★★★☆

written by Ken Chong. on 21/01/2002

I have been using Superia 400 ASA XTRA as one of my favourite 'holiday' and general shooting films for my F90X and F5's diet. It is perfect for both day and night filming. If you like polarisers, this is a good film giving highly saturated and yet natural colours closer to seeing a transparency.
The exposure latitude is useful and I seldom have to bracket. Using the Nikon's Matrix metering system and the 3D flash system, the film performs very well time and time again.
It is better to set your meter to overexpose by 1/2 to 1 stop. If you are using flash, over expose 1/2 stop and set the flash to - 1/2 stop will yield superb results under almost all conditions.
Best to print using FUJI's new digital processors on FUJI Crystal Archive paper. I was in the UK last November and captured some of the best autumn colours, rich golds, yellows and reds against beautiful blue skies. Recommend a good quality circular polariser for intense colours.
During the night, set your camera on manual and meter for local exposure, set the flash to auto TTL and fire away to get super results. This is a little different from setting it to slow sync. This 400 ASA speed will capture very good detail and rich colours.
I find this film better than Kodak's Royal Gold 400 ASA which tends to err on skin tones. But if you really want great skin tones, you should try Fuji's NPH 400 which is about the most accurate I have come across. Also try Kodak's Portra NC.

This is an excellent film which yields superb results with most point-and-shoot cameras (in my case, my excellent Leica C1 compact).

In the USA, this film is also marketed as Superia X-TRA.
I have also purchased the same emulsion through B&H Photo in New York as Fujicolor Press 400 (available in packs of 5 and 20, although B&H will sell individual canisters).

I have received excellent prints on Agfa, Fuji, and Kodak Royal (the latter not to be confused with the typing-paper-thin Kodak Paper marketed by most drugstores) papers.

marc - To me, it makes more sense to compare the Fuji X100 to the Leica X1 than to the M9. The M9 is just a dneierfft camera system and price leauge.I am surprized though that you find the X100 to be an expensive point and shoot camera yet prefer the Leica X1 that offers no more (imo rather less features) at a 50% higher price I agree that the X100 AF is barely usable at low light. I tried to shoot a wedding last weekend and was glad I had the 5D MK II to save me once we moved indoors Beautiful images. I especially like the b&w ones
