Portra 160 is the finest grain of the three Portra’s,    Its low iso makes it great for daylight shooting and it’s warmth makes it ideal for portraiture.    This film has very good exposure latitude which means it does well with overexposure.    It has medium contrast and low saturation making a great alternative to the more saturated  Ektar 100 .
