This is film made by Kodak called "Color Plus" 200. I get good results from it. This particular film was some I purchased online and it originates from someplace outside of the U.S.A. The film cartridge itself is named "Kodacolor." Kodak Kodacolor is what I used to shoot with in the 1970s and into the early 1980s, but Kodak doesn't sell Kodacolor in the U.S.A. any longer. They had new, better emulsions that were better than Kodacolor. Why Kodak sells Kodacolor in other parts of the world and not America doesn't seem right to me. It was superceded in America by better emulsions, so that makes me think that Kodacolor in a worse emulsion. Why pawn off sub-standard film to the rest of the world instead of their newer emulsions? Kodak, you got some 'splainin' to do.

This shot was a long exposure at dawn, well before the sun came up. Plus, it was heavily overcast, so it looks a lot lighter than it actually was. The camera is just a cheap little plastic trashcam which has a plastic lens that isn't very good. But, I had never used this camera before, so now I can say I have. The image was converted to black and white from the expired colour film. Camera: Jazz 206 (normal setting) Lens: 27mm optical lens Film: Snappy Colour 200, (expired) Shutter Speed: “B” 30 secs.
