Hi friends,

I have received around 10-15 rolls of 120 medium format Kodak Pro 1000 PMZ . However, I can understand that its an expired film and is not used anymore. But can someone provide me pointers on how the film is ? Can this be used for portraiture especially female .. What speed I should be rating it while shooting the portraits.

Also how good it is with pull and push compared to the Portras..

Any information on the film will be greatly admired and appreciated

Google gave this info, the film is since long time discontinued...
KODAK Pro 1000 Film / PMZ is an ultra high speed color negative film that features excellent color, wide exposure latitude, and exceptional image quality. It is designed for situations where available light may be limited, a high shutter speed may be required, or extra depth of field is needed. Its speed allows faster shutter speeds to stop motion and also extends the range of flash.

Suggested applications for KODAK Professional Films are given in the table below.
