How they look
- Centuria 400
- Konica's last consumer colour negative range, Centuria, launched in 1999 in ISO 100, 200, 400 and 800 (Wikipedia). Konica Minolta closed its photo imaging division, including colour film, in the mid-2000s.
- Superia X-TRA 400
- Fujifilm's all-conditions ISO 400 consumer film (135 only), sold 2003 to 2024. Early versions had a 4th cyan colour layer for fluorescent light; Wikipedia notes recent revisions omitted it. Discontinued in all markets in April 2024 and replaced by the Kodak-made Fujifilm 400.
