Nightshade 500T

Nightshade is a 500 ISO tungsten balanced cine-film. Although this film can have a blue colour cast when shot outdoors on a sunny day without a filter, in low light it's one of the best films on the market!
The perfect film for afternoon/night shooting. It's great for shooting gigs, in the shade, inside houses or with your friends on the beach at sunset. It can handle a push 1-2 stops for some more low light flexibility and added grain and contrast. It does not love flash without a warming gel but maybe you will!
*Remjet is a layer on the film that aides the film’s movement within cinema cameras. It won’t hurt your camera though it will hurt a film lab’s C-41 processor. It’s essential you tell your lab that these films have their remjet layer intact or taking it to a lab familiar with the ECN-2 process.
*ECN-2 is the chemical process that gets the best results out of cinema film. You can also develop it in C-41 but it is essential you do this yourself and do not take it to a lab to develop (as it can ruin their equipment).
We recommend Do-Film! in Darlinghurst who develop ECN-2 in house!
