Fuji v Kodak for portraits ?

[Havoc]

I'd like opinions on the plus and minus points if there are any of the specialist 120 film that both these companies produce for portrait work ? What are the differences in colour, contrast, sharpness etc.... Thanks in advance for any help as usual.

Kodak Portra films render skin tones with a bit more ease than Fuji films. Fuji 400h / 160s have a lot of magenta in them that is kinda hard to remove in post processing.

No examples off hand, but I'd go with Kodak Portra for portraits.

If you're scanning, there is no difference.
