Honest 500T is tungsten-balanced cinema film, independently loaded into 35mm cassettes by Honest Film Supply. A versatile stock for everyday shooting, especially outdoor evening photography, indoor portraits, and scenes lit by warm artificial light.
Shooting in daylight? Expect a cooler color balance. For a warmer look, use a warming filter or adjust the white balance when scanning and editing.
This film uses an anti-halation undercoat (AHU) and is manufactured without remjet backing. There’s no remjet layer to remove before developing.

Choose your process
C-41
C-41 typically brings stronger contrast and richer color. With this process, you can often rate 500T at ISO 640 or even 800.
ECN-2
ECN-2 is the film’s intended process. Its flatter look, lower contrast, and restrained saturation make it a good starting point for more extensive color grading.
Camera compatibility
Standard rolls are not DX-coded. Use a camera with manual ISO control, or add a DX code in the cart for $0.50 per roll. We apply a DX code that tells compatible automatic cameras which ISO setting to use.
Automatic cameras handle non-DX-coded film differently, so check your camera’s instructions before loading.
