Which 35mm film stock is ACTUALLY the best?
After shooting and testing a ton of rolls over the years, I ranked the most popular 35mm film stocks from worst to best — based on color, skin tones, dynamic range, low light performance, versatility, and overall look.
From classics like Kodak Portra 400 to cinematic favorites like CineStill 800T, I break down what each film does well (and where it falls apart).
If you’re into:
• Film photography
• 35mm film stocks
• Beginner film recommendations
• Portrait film vs street film
• Low light 35mm film
• Film stock comparisons
This video will help you decide which film is actually worth your money in 2026.
