Kodak Vision3 250D 5207/7207

Kodak Vision3 250D 5207 is a daylight-balanced color negative film stock designed for professional motion picture cinematography. Its higher ISO of 250 makes it more versatile than slower stocks like the 50D, suitable for overcast exterior scenes, daylight interiors, and situations where more exposure latitude is needed.

Yes, like other Kodak Vision3 stocks, the 250D can be used in 35mm still cameras but requires removal of the remjet backing for processing. Some photo labs offer ECN-2 processing for motion picture stocks, while others will remove the remjet layer and cross-process in C-41 chemistry.

The primary difference is speed: 250D has an ISO of 250 compared to 50D's ISO of 50, making 250D five stops faster and more suitable for lower light conditions. The 50D offers finer grain and greater sharpness in bright light, while the 250D provides more flexibility in overcast daylight and interior situations.

The numbers indicate the film format: 5207 refers to 35mm stock and 7207 refers to 16mm stock. Both use the same emulsion with ISO 250 speed and daylight color balance, offered in different formats for various professional motion picture and specialty photography applications.
