A 135 film cartridge of Cinestill 800Tungsten Xpro C-41

Cinestill Film creates photographic film for still cameras in 135 and 120 film formats from modified Kodak motion picture cinema film stock.

Color negative films

For their color negative films, Cinestill Film modifies Kodak motion picture cinema film, allowing it to be developed with the C-41 process rather than the Eastman Color Negative process. Cinestill Film converts the Kodak motion picture cinema film by removing the Remjet backing, a separate Anti-halation backing used to protect the film in motion picture cameras. Due to the removal of this anti-halation backing, Cinestill Film exhibits a glowing effect on the image in areas with strong highlights.[1][2]

Cinestill Film's 800Tungsten Xpro C-41 (short: 800T) is based on Kodak's Vision 3 5219 motion picture cinema film. Beta testing of 800T began in late 2012. Although the Vision 3 5219 film is normally rated for 500 ISO, the conversion to C-41 processing allows the film to be rated at 800 ISO.[3] 800T originally was only available in 135 format, until a 120 format version was released in April 2017.[2]

In a similar manner, Cinestill Film also produces 50Daylight Xpro C-41 (short: 50D) from Kodak's Vision3 50D 7203 motion picture cinema film.[1] Originally available only in 135 format, 120 film followed in late 2017.[4]

Black and white negative film

CineStill's bwXX Double-X is Eastman double-x film stock 5222 produced by Eastman Kodak,[5] spooled onto 135 film cartridges by Cinestill and only sold in limited quantities.[6]
