I noticed this today...maybe slightly old news for some. Kodak just released what they claim is the finest grain color neg film. Replaces Ultra 100.

Hope they release it in 120 and 4x5!!!

Kodak says 135-36 only to start, no mention, of course, of any other sizes: http://www.kodak.com/global/en/professional/products/films/ektar/ektarIndex.jhtml?id=0.2.26.14.5.14&lc=en

It doesn't sound too promising for sheet film--unfortunately.

Is it supposed to have finer grain than Portra 160?

Where does Ektar fall on the charts, not just grain, when comparing it to something like Portra?

Much finer. See the chart on this page:

The data sheet only lists 35mm.

Sounds awesome... Hehehe - all you 35mm film skeptics!
