surface of the film with a transparent magnetic layer. This layer records digital information that links all Advanced Photo System components through information exchange (IX). IX permits communication between you, the camera, the film, and the photofinishing equipment in the lab that processes and prints your film. Kodak ADVANTiX 400 multi-purpose film is the right choice for use in low light, for fast action, for zoom photography, and for extending your flash distance range. This improved high-speed film delivers more accurate color rendition, with more vibrant, saturated colors - an enhancement that's particularly noticeable in film that's been accidentally overexposed. Its improved fine grain means outstanding panoramic shots - even when film is underexposed. Optimized skin-tone rendition means great people pictures. And better printing compatibility with other films in the lab means consistent, high-quality prints for you. This film incorporates T-Grain emulsions technology to provide excellent performance in low-light situations or where extended flash range is necessary, and the sharpness usually associated with lower-speed films.

Faster is *not* necessarily better., August 4, 2002
Reviewer: Arthur Itis "rheumor"

The film is fine. Its ASA of 400 is a good speed for outdoor pics with little motion. An ASA of 200 is however preferable for those whose pictures will be taken mostly indoors. Those who want to freeze motion (eg. sports) will benefit from an ASA of 1000. Portraiture should be done on slow, ASA 100 or lower (if available) film. Value within each speed should be calculated by exposures divided by roll price; in general, the 40 exposure size is a better bargain than these 25s.

As with cars, so with film: the faster the better, January 2, 2002
Reviewer: B. Steggeman "bds4348"

Kodak makes the industy's best film. Period. Like the title says, the faster the film, the better the results (for amatures anyway). 400 is the minimum that any amatuer should buy, and generally the results are pretty good. 800 speed is even better, but be prepared to pay more for it. 800 is good for low light and high-speed subjects. However, for most situations, 400 should be fine.

Kodak 400 speed is far superior to the 200 speed, December 14, 2001
Reviewer: A customer

I recently came back from a trip to Europe and developed my 200 speed and 400 speed film at the same time. The pictures from the 400 speed film were far superior to the 200 speed film - even though the pictures were taken under the same conditions. The pictures from the 200 speed were grainy and lacked the color quality. It is worth spending more money for the 400 - regardless of the what the conditions will be when you expect to take your pictures.

 Great color and a very sharp for this speed., January 30, 2001
Reviewer: Conrad B. Senior

Go the the PALM restaurant (in Manhattan or eslewhere), order an 8 lb lobster and bring a panoramic camera with this film. You'll be able to fit the whole lobster in the picture and the color will make your friends green with envy.

The film makes people look very natural and flattering. I liked the color on all the photos I've seen taken with this film--especially the people pictures where other films have let me down with crappy contrast or dead colors.

Nice film format. Kodak has always been the best film. Here is modern proof the haven't been sitting on their butts.

I love the color of the pictures from the advantix cameras. For people like me who just want nice snapshots of things that are going on in there lives, I feel that Kodak offers the best quality.
