Character & history#
A premium ISO 100-speed emulsion delivering exceptional color accuracy. The finest, smoothest grain and the best sharpness of all Superia films. First 4th layer technology film for improved colors (no greenish cast) under fluorescent lighting later extended to fujifilm Superia and Pro color negative films (CS).

Exposure guide at ISO 100#
Sunny 16 for this film: f/16 at 1/100 s in bright sun. Negative film tolerates 2–3 stops of overexposure; slide film needs accuracy within about ⅓–½ stop.
| Light | f/2 | f/4 | f/8 | f/16 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EV 16 · Snow / beach, bright sun | — | — | 1/1000 s | 1/250 s |
| EV 15 · Bright sun | — | 1/2000 s | 1/500 s | 1/125 s |
| EV 14 · Hazy sun | — | 1/1000 s | 1/250 s | 1/60 s |
| EV 13 · Cloudy-bright | 1/2000 s | 1/500 s | 1/125 s | 1/30 s |
| EV 12 · Overcast / open shade | 1/1000 s | 1/250 s | 1/60 s | 1/15 s |
| EV 10 · Sunset | 1/250 s | 1/60 s | 1/15 s | 1/4 s |

Push & pull options#
Tell your lab how many stops you pushed or pulled so development is adjusted for the whole roll.
| Adjustment | Rate the film at | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Pull 1 stop | EI 50 | Lower contrast, finer grain |
| Push 1 stop | EI 200 | More contrast and grain |
| Push 2 stops | EI 400 | Strong contrast, coarse grain, blocked shadows |
| Push 3 stops | EI 800 | Strong contrast, coarse grain, blocked shadows |
Long exposures#
Most films suffer reciprocity failure beyond about 1 second: they need more exposure than the meter says. As a rule of thumb add ⅓–1 stop for 1–10 s and 1–2 stops beyond 10 s for older emulsions; modern T-grain films (and Fuji Acros) need much less. Check the manufacturer's datasheet.
