CineStill 50Daylight (50D) – ISO 50 Colour Negative Film – 120 Roll

Ultra-Fine Grain | Daylight-Balanced | Medium Format

CineStill 50Daylight (120) is the world’s sharpest and finest grain colour negative film, now available in medium format. Engineered from motion picture film stock and tailored for still photography, this ISO 50 daylight-balanced (5500K) emulsion is ideal for those seeking unmatched sharpness, minimal grain, and cinematic colour rendition in bright lighting conditions.

This film excels in wide aperture photography under direct light and produces high-resolution images with rich, subtle tones. With exceptional exposure latitude, 50D can be rated between EI 12–100 without the need for push processing—perfect for photographers seeking both creative flexibility and precision.

Key Features:

■ EI 50 daylight-balanced colour negative film (5500K)
■ Medium format – 120 roll film
