Dubblefilm Jelly 400 35 mm Color Film Review | The Most Colorful and Funky Retro Film for Unique Photos

May 14, 2026

I’m probably a little bit too excited to review the Jelly 35 mm film roll by dubblefilm, but I can’t help it! I’ve been waiting to try out this film forever and I finally got up the nerve to use it in one of my point and shoot 35 mm film cameras, the Samsung Evoca Zoom 115. I’m absolutely obsessed with the results. I’m always doing what I can to create light leaks and dreamy, colorful images, so I knew that I was going to love this film. I was on instagram one day and came across a few photos that a photographer took with this film and I bought a roll right away. It’s definitely not the cheapest film out there, but for what you’re getting, I’d be willing to buy it again.

I guess this isn’t really a review, but more of a rave because it’s exactly what I was hoping for. I’ve tried out a few experimental film rolls like Pyschedelic Blues and even made my own film soup (a fun way to alter your film rolls at home - I have a YouTube video about it if you want to try it for yourself!)! But the variety that I got throughout this film roll was pretty amazing. All of the images below are from the same roll of film, so you’ll see the immense color variation throughout. There are pinks, blues, reds, greens, and purples. And there aren’t any images that didn’t turn out because the color variations weren’t crazy or overdone. There’s just a gorgeous rainbow-like effect over each photo that brings a lovely, magical quality to them. I was actually expecting most of the images to be more of the pink/purple tone based on the images I saw on instagram, but I’m actually happy that there was more variation than that.

If you’re looking for a fun roll of film that it still reliable and won’t ruin any of your images, the dubblefilm Jelly 35 mm roll is definitely a great one to try out. I’d recommend comparing it to my photos using the Psychedelic Blues film that I mentioned above (you can see sample photos from that film here!). You’ll see that the dubblefilm is just a little less extreme and more subtle, yet still exciting and colorful. If you’d prefer something even more unique and unusual, the Psychedelic Blues film is also super fun to experiment with.

Another thing I love about this film is that for a 400 ISO film, it was surprisingly not grainy. When I’m using cheap point and shoot cameras, I’m sometimes disappointed by the results when I use a 400 speed film. Mostly because the cameras themselves aren’t super sharp, so when you combine that with a grainy film, it just lacks detail. But I didn’t find that to be the case with this film, and when I was scanning it with my Epson film scanner, I realized why - because it’s actually Kodak GC/Ultramax 400 film! They just used that brand when creating their experimental film, and I find Kodak GC/Ultramax to be a great representation of 400 film because it has that “film” look to it, but the grain isn’t overpowering. It works well in most lighting conditions and is the perfect all-around daytime film, whether it’s sunny or cloudy outside. I have a full review about the Kodak GC/Ultramax film on my blog here!

I’ll definitely be shooting with this film again, especially because I had such a blast shooting with it knowing that I was going to get bright, colorful photos. It was just so exciting! I love anything that makes my photos stand out. :)

Kentmere Pan 100 Film Review with Sample Photos Using a Holga 120 GCFN Camera | The Best Affordable Black and White Film for Beginner Photographers

When I was planning my 16-day trip to England to hike the 102-mile Cotswold Way National Trail, I wanted to bring a handful of different film stocks I’d never tried before. I loaded up my film pouch with dozens of color and black and white film rolls, knowing I’d have to carry it all for 102 miles, but knowing at the end of it all, it would be worth it. Or at least, hoping it would be! There is nothing more exciting to me than capturing my travels on film. Taking photos on my phone of a place I’d potentially never be able to visit again in my lifetime, just doesn’t cut it for me. I need memorable, one-of-a-kind images that I could proudly hang on my wall.

Kentmere Pan 100 is one of those films I’ve seen time and time again when shopping online for film, but I’ve never tried because it just seemed too affordable. It made me question whether it could take photos that compared to some of the more expensive black and white film stocks, like Neopan Acros 100 or Ilford HP5. But, considering I had a LOT of film to buy for my trip, I didn’t want to spend my entire life savings on film. Kentmere Pan 100 is one of the cheapest black and white 120 films out there and is often considered a “student grade” film for those who are just starting out or don’t want to spend a ton of money on film. I’m honestly surprised I never tried this one out in college! It’s available in 35 mm and 120 formats, so I’ll have to try out the 35 mm version next!

When I was first scanning film from my trip, I could tell immediately I was going to love this film. There was a soft eeriness to it that perfectly complimented the old churches and buildings I photographed throughout my hike. I was surprised by the level of sharpness that such an affordable film offered. While its not quite as sharp as I’m used to for a 100 speed film, I added just a tiny bit of sharpening when editing in Lightroom and it turned out exactly as I’d hoped. One of the most exciting aspects of this film was how well it handled low light. Oftentimes, when I’m shooting with a toy camera like the Holga GCFN and I’m using 100 speed film, I have to make sure I’m shooting in extremely bright daylight with no shade whatsoever, in order to get the best images possible. However, with this film I noticed that it handled the shadows with ease, offering more detail that I would have expected. While it’s definitely not as contrasty as Neopan Acros 100 (one of my favorite black and white films), sometimes it’s nice to have images that start out a little more flat. That way, you can adjust the shadows and highlights to your liking. There is hardly any noticeable grain at all in this film, which is ideal for fine art printing because you can blow up your images rather large and still get clarity and smoothness. This would be a great film for darkroom printing, which is why I’m assuming it’s often used for students and photographers who are just starting their journey into film photography.

I honestly have nothing bad to say about this film. It’s incredibly affordable and is a perfect standard black and white film. While I personally prefer the tiniest bit more contrast, I still love how dreamy and nostalgic these images turned out. I will definitely be including this film stock in my future B&H orders (my favorite place to buy cameras & film!), especially because it’s cheap! But also because it’s easy to work with, offers great detail and sharpness for the price, and captured my hike in the Cotswolds exactly how I hoped it would. :) If you want to find out more about our hike, I have a full video series on my YouTube channel. You can watch it here!

Fujifilm 200 Color Negative 35 mm Film Review with Sample Photos in Paris, France!

July 23, 2025

For years, I’ve always gravitated towards Kodak film stocks, but lately I’ve been branching out and trying more Fujifilm options. There’s something incredibly nostalgic about 35 mm Fujifilm, probably because it was common in the 80s and 90s for disposable cameras to be pre-loaded with a version of color Fujifilm or Kodak, and I specifically remember the way that Fujifilm disposable looked from my childhood.

I decided to try out the Fujifilm 200 Color Negative film with my Canon Rebel K2 while I was in Paris, France. I have a full blog post and YouTube video about the Canon Rebel K2, if you’d like to learn more about it! It’s a fairly average 35 mm camera, but I find it to be the perfect travel camera, especially if you’re just getting into film photography.

Going through these photos from my trip to Paris reminds me of why I love shooting film photography on my trips. Every image just feels sentimental and memorable. With film photography, there is just more thought and decisiveness that goes into creating an image than it does with digital photography. Every photo costs money, so each one is intentional and important to me.

Overall, I’m pleasantly surprised by this film in that it captured quite a bit of detail in the shadows for a 200 ISO film. I do find it to be a bit grainy for a 200 speed film, but the color tones are beautiful. I absolutely love the slight green tint that I find Fujifilm to have because it’s almost as if the images have already aged a bit. It reminds me of looking through old photographs from my childhood that have turned a bit dusty or discolored after sitting in the photo album for a decade or two. Sometimes though, the slight green tint can become a bit difficult to deal with in post-processing if you’re photographing out in nature or with lots of foliage. There can just be too much green. In those situations, I’d probably prefer to use something like Kodak Portra 160 or 400 because they have more natural color tones.

For the price though, Fujifilm 200 Color Negative is a fun, reliable film stock. I don’t find it to be too oversaturated, which can be an issue with other low-price film stocks. One issue I tend to have with cheaper film is with skin tones. I often end up having to pull out red, yellows, and oranges but I didn’t find myself doing that with this film. I actually didn’t want to mess with the color tones too much in post-processing because the magic of Fujifilm is that it does have that vintage greenish tint to it.

I definitely want to try out this film with one of my more expensive 35 mm cameras so that I can really see what it’s capable of, especially with a wider aperture that may decrease the visible grain. But overall, I have no regrets using this film on my trip to Paris and I will definitely continue to try this film out more in the future!
