KODAK ROYAL GOLD 25 Film
DESCRIPTION
KODAK ROYAL GOLD 25 Film has the same technically
advanced characteristics as the film it replaces—KODAK
EKTAR 25 Film. Like all ROYAL GOLD Films, it is
designed and produced to meet the needs of knowledgeable
and discriminating photographers who want more from
photographs than general-purpose films can provide.
ROYAL GOLD 25 Film offers micro-fine grain, extremely
high sharpness, and the capability for an extremely high
degree of enlargement. The film is designed for exposure
with daylight or electronic flash.
Use ROYAL GOLD 25 Film in cameras that allow you to
set the film speed manually, or in cameras that will correctly
set the film speed automatically from the DX code on the
magazine. (Some automatic 35 mm cameras do not read the
DX code for ISO 25/15˚ film and will underexpose it.) This
film requires more precise exposure control than general-
purpose films.
