Why 35mm and 65mm Film Are Still Alive
Digital cameras dominate contemporary production, yet 35mm and 65mm film remain in active manufacture and continue to be used from major features to independent cinema.
Kodak’s motion-picture portfolio includes negative stocks for different lighting conditions. Grain, highlight response, color character and on-set discipline remain important creative reasons for choosing film.
Film and digital are no longer mutually exclusive systems. Many productions combine analog capture with digital post-production to use the strengths of both.
