help Kodak Vision3 200T FAQ
What does the 200T mean in Kodak VISION3 200T?
The 200 refers to its nominal exposure index of 200 under tungsten lighting, while T means tungsten balance. Kodak identifies the camera-film versions as 5213 for 35mm and 7213 for 16mm.
Can Kodak VISION3 200T be used in daylight?
Yes, but daylight exposure requires an appropriate correction filter, commonly an 85 filter, and Kodak lists a lower daylight exposure index than the tungsten rating. Without correction, daylight can produce a strong blue color cast.
What kind of lighting is Kodak VISION3 200T best suited to?
It is designed for controlled tungsten interiors and other low-light or mixed-light cinema situations. Its 200 speed gives more exposure flexibility than a slower stock while retaining the wide latitude associated with the VISION3 family.
How is VISION3 200T different from Kodak VISION3 500T?
Both are tungsten-balanced color-negative stocks, but 500T is the faster option for darker scenes. 200T is often chosen when the lighting level supports it and a finer-grained image is preferred.
