KODAK VISION2 50D Color Negative Film 5201 / 7201
is a low-speed daylight film with an expansive
dynamic range that delivers more detail in shadow
areas—even in high contrast situations. Advances in
grain and sharpness—found in all VISION2 Films—
make it ideal for recorder output and provide an
ultra-clean, detailed image in any lighting condition.
KODAK VISION2 50D is the latest addition to the
VISION2 Film family—a lineup of films created
specifically for both film and digital postproduction.
All VISION2 Films offer excellent tone scale and
flesh-to-neutral reproduction while maintaining
neutrality through the full range of exposures.
