MR. NEGATIVE is a film brand that has become popular in recent years, and every film stock is designed around its own unique concept.
This time they are putting out two ISO 400 colour negative films at once, but they belong to different series:
FILM SAFETY CAPSULE & SHIBUYA CAPSULE.
Both of these films use C‑41 processing, and most film labs can handle them, so you do not have to worry about troubling your film lab photographer.
FRAGILE 400 – FILM SAFETY CAPSULE production
ISO 400 Colour Negative Film, C‑41 Processing.
The inspiration comes from the “Mistakes and Misunderstandings” that film photographers often encounter. The name FRAGILE is a reminder to everyone: sometimes we are a bit fragile QQ. You may be unsure whether your film has been properly exposed, or worry that airport X‑RAY checks will ruin it, and end up in this anxious state!
FILM SAFETY CAPSULE – reminding film photographers about the common little risks.
FRAGILE 400 – How Should You Shoot It To Get The Best Results?
- Suitable for everyday snapshots, portraits and travel records.
- ISO 400 is enough for both indoor and outdoor use, so you do not need to worry too much about light sources.
- Natural and true‑to‑life colours, great if you want to capture the realistic feeling of a scene.
- If you just want to record daily life and do not want to calculate exposure too much, this film is perfect for beginners or casual shooters.
- Load a roll of this film and relax, enjoy the shooting process!
ARCADE 400 – SHIBUYA CAPSULE production
ISO 400 Colour Negative Film, C‑41 Processing.
The inspiration comes from childhood memories of being immersed in retro arcade video games, dedicated to those who love travelling to Japan and using film to capture the streets.
SHIBUYA CAPSULE – full of Shibuya street vibes, neon lights and a Japanese‑style atmosphere. Each roll of film is like a game level card, waiting for you to enter.
ARCADE 400 – How Should You Shoot It To Get The Best Results?
- Great for daily street shots, city scenes and night neon arcade scenes.
- ISO 400 is fine from sunset to night‑time light sources.
- Colours bring out the rich, saturated feeling of retro arcade machines.
- If you are travelling to Japan, especially love Shibuya street vibes and want cinematic storytelling in your photos, just keep a roll with you and jump into the next game any time. 🎮
