Film type: color negative
Film format: 35mm
Sensitivity: ISO 800/30°

CINESTILL 800Tungsten is a unique color film with a sensitivity of ISO 800. The film is based on the same gold standard film technology used by cinematographers around the world. This flexible film was developed for tungsten and low-light photography and is suitable for use in a variety of lighting situations to achieve a variety of looks. The new and improved manufacturing process now extends the shelf life of 800T so that fewer artifacts are observed after the shelf life has expired. This advanced film emulsion is ideal for scanning and is safe for processing in standard C-41 photo lab machines or C-41 home development, but can also be processed with Cs2 chemistry for low contrast film negatives. When developed with C-41 chemistry it also gives a good contrast curve for printing on RA-4 paper. Treat this film like a high speed 800 ISO film for C-41 development and push development up to 3200 ISO if needed!

FEATURES
- color negative cinema emulsion
- Safe for development in the C-41 photo lab (without Remjet Backing)
- Slight halo effect - 35mm / 36exp.
- Balanced for artificial light
- Designed for difficult artificial light situations
- Can be pushed up to 3200 ISO
- Factory-rewound, DX-coded cassettes

Recommended acceptable exposure for push processing:
No Push - EI 200-1000
1 Stop Push - EI 800-2000
2 Stop Push - EI 1250-3200
3 Stop Push - EI 1600-3200 (additional contrast)

In daylight we recommend using an 85B filter and/or setting the ISO to 400-500.

Expiration Date: Newly packaged CineStill film will last longer and exhibit less noticeable artifacts after its expiration date. However, for best results, it should be stored in the refrigerator and used within 6 months of purchase. Exposed film should be processed promptly with C-41 chemistry to preserve latent image latitude and color fidelity. All current CineStill products have an expiration date of two years from the date of manufacture on the packaging. If you have previous batches of 800T or your film does not have an expiration date, it is likely that it has faded due to age.

Note: This emulsion was originally developed for ECN-2 film processing and can still be processed using ALL of these steps or with the CineStill Cs2 "Cine Simplified" kit, resulting in a low contrast, lower gamma negative that is not suitable for darkroom prints. Although there is no Remjet adhesive layer to contaminate and consume the chemicals, C-41 processing results in higher density and higher gamma that is more favorable for photography workflows. Tests have shown that standard C-41 processing produces superior results compared to ECN-2 cine lab processing in professional labs. However, long term archival stability has not been tested beyond 9 years. Expectations for archival life are somewhere between Kodachrome and most C-41 films. We will replace any roll that shows a defect. We assume no liability beyond replacement of the original film purchased.

Storage and handling: Load and unload film in dim light. Store unexposed film in its original sealed package in the refrigerator at 13°C or lower. To avoid moisture condensation on refrigerated film, allow the film to warm to room temperature before opening the package. Develop the film as soon as possible after exposure. Protect the developed film from strong light and store it in a cool, dry place.
