Just picked up a roll from my local shop - Pauls Photo in Torrance. I was waiting for them to stock it as I didn’t feel like paying shipping for just one roll.

Will shoot it tomorrow.

I recently shot a roll at box speed. It was fun and experimental. The film has almost zero latitude but looks killer in certain lighting. I would not recommend high contrast scenes.

This is when you are meant to post sample pics.

You can embed photos hosted elsewhere for free. I use the 'BBCode' share option from flickr.

I was thinking of shooting Phoenix today but given how short days are and that it's not sunny very often, decided against it. That decision was partly made because it seems that Phoenix needs sun. Overcast photos look kind of bland. Can anyone who shot it advise which light is most suitable for Phoenix?

I shot the whole roll yesterday in flat, overcast conditions. It apparently is very contrasty so flat lighting should be fine.
Will get it developed this week and will post results.

Finally getting around to sharing some of my images. These were shot on a Nikon FM3a in aperture priority.

What did you rate the film at?
How did you scan/convert the images?

Negs about to be scanned.

One really weird thing - the way this film smells! It has a strong smell that reminds me of drying ink!
Not unpleasant, but very unusual.

The smell of film when you open the plastic can is one of the endearing aspects of film photography. It's as good as opening up a can of coffee. They need to find a way to make digital cameras smell that good.

Phoenix 200 smells like no other, and it is strong!

So my take on Phoenix 200? At the moment it is a ‘specialty’ film. I rated it at 160 and the images you see posted were taken in flat/soft lighting. I did not edit them per se, basically a straight camera scan with no adjustments. It crushes the shadows almost immediately - the images look like I moved the black slider to do that and saturate the colours but I did not.
In some ways it reminds me of the first run of Lomo Metropolis, but leaning on the green. The shadows go green immediately. The lens I used vignettes heavily wide open and you can see this green in the vignette!
All my shots were on a flat, grey day. I’d like to try it in the sunshiney beach days I am used to but… don’t want to spend $14 for another roll when my fridge is already full of film that I like to use more!
I do view this as an ‘album cover’ film right now. Use it for that limited DR look, for when you just want punch and solid blocks.

In contrast, that Adox Colour Mission 200 is just beautiful all the time. I think that is the only other legit new colour film. But I had to get my roll shipped to me by a friend in Europe and I have no idea if it will become a regular production film.
