Ultimately choosing which roll of film is best for you is a highly personal choice, and one that often comes down to aesthetics. The first thing to consider when selecting what film you will shoot is if you are looking for black-and-white images or color images. A roll of Kodak TriX 400 is an excellent place to start with black-and-white film because of its pleasing contrast. Kodak Portra 400 is our favorite type of color roll because of the way it renders colors and skin tones. The best way to decide what roll of film is best for you is to experiment and shoot a bunch of them.
