Kodacolor VR 400 – Expired 1987/1989
Specifications:
Film Type: Kodak Kodacolor VR 400 Color Negative Film (Expired 1987–1989)
Format: 120 Medium Format
Exposure: 1 Roll (Yields 8, 10, 12, or 16 exposures depending on camera format)
ISO: Originally rated at 400 (We suggest shooting this at 25 to 50 ISO)
Processing: Standard C-41 Color Negative
Product Overview:
Kodacolor VR 400 was Kodak’s high-speed color film from the late 1980s, known for its warm tones, smooth grain, and wide exposure latitude. This batch, expired between 1987 and 1989, comes from sealed boxes. While the film is still sealed, the condition of the packaging varies—some boxes are more beat up than others due to age and storage.
For best results, we suggest rating this film between ISO 25 and 50 to account for the loss of sensitivity over time. Color shifts, grain increase, and base fog are all likely—but these imperfections lend the film its distinctive charm. The results can be beautifully unpredictable, producing atmospheric images with a vintage look that’s impossible to duplicate with digital.
Important Details:
Manual ISO Setting: This roll is not DX-coded and should be used in a camera with manual ISO control. Shooting at ISO 25–50 and bracketing your exposures is strongly recommended.
Age-Related Effects: Being over three decades expired and not cold-stored, this film may show base fog, muted contrast, and nonstandard color rendering. Each roll will vary, making it ideal for creative exploration.
No Sample Images: This batch has not been tested due to its rarity. Rolls are sold as-is. Box condition will vary from roll to roll.
