At my son's wedding last year I ran out of Portra just before the wedding
dance and had to fall back on Gold 200 for the reception and dance
shots. The Portra shots came back from the lab just as I expected, great
skin tones, less contrast, great detail, your typical wedding photography
color palette. The Gold 200 shots of the reception and dance had great
color saturation and vibrancy, skin tones were over tanned but actually it
made for a good party film because the increased color saturation really
picked up the color of the balloons and other decorations. I can see why
the UK magazine Practical Photography picked it as their favorite 200 speed
color print film last year.
