Cinestill Film creates photographic film for still cameras from Kodak's motion picture cinema film. Cinestill Film uses a modified version of Kodak motion picture cinema film, allowing it to be developed with the C-41 process rather than the Eastman Color Negative process. Beta testing of Cinestill Film's "800Tungsten Xpro C-41" began in late 2012, the film is based on Kodak's "Vision 3 5219" motion picture cinema film. Although the "Vision 3 5219" film is normally rated for 500ISO, the conversion to C-41 processing allows the film to be rated at 800ISO.[1]

Cinestill Film converts the Kodak motion picture cinema film by removing the Remjet backing, a separate Anti-halation backing used to protect the film in motion picture cameras. Due to the removal of this anti-halation backing, Cinestill Film exhibits a glowing effect on the image in areas with strong highlights.[2]

In addition to their first product "800Tungsten Xpro C-41", Cinestill Film also produces "50Daylight Xpro C-41" from Kodak's "Vision3 50D" motion picture cinema film as 135 film.[2]
