Pondering what to shoot tomorrow at the VMR car show. Last week was Phoenix 200 (the old one). I have another roll of that. It's medium format 6x6 so it's 12 frames.
Expired film has been in the freezer most of its life.

Phoenix is super punchy and would work best outside in bright light because of how narrow it's exposure window seems to be from experience.
I'm going with either Slide film or Phoenix, especially if it's 120 and 6x6 - seems to handle better in the larger format - but I love punchy colours.
If you're looking for a more 'retro' vibe the Portra would probably be best.
