TECHNICAL DATA / COLOR NEGATIVE FILM
KODAK VISION3 500T Color 
Negative Film 5219 / 7219 / SO-219
The first in a new family of films, VISION3 500T Film gives 
you more control and flexibility at every phase of the 
filmmaking process—from capture through post, in both 
digital and traditional workflows. 
VISION3 500T Film retains the overall look and image 
structure of KODAK VISION2 Films—then adds technical 
innovations that provide improved exposure latitude—at 
both ends of the curve. Proprietary, advanced Dye Layering 
Technology (DLT) gives you noticeably reduced grain in 
shadows, so you can shoot at higher speeds, with less light, 
in darker corners, and know you can capture an amazing 
amount of shadow detail with noticeably lower grain.
VISION3 500T Film also features extended highlight 
latitude, so you can follow the action into bright light-in a 
single shot-without worrying about blown-out details. 
When the film is scanned and digitized, you'll find you can 
recover two stops of highlight detail. This technology is 
enabled by the use of sub-micron imaging sensors.
VISION3 500T Film fits seamlessly into your digital 
workflow. And when scanning low-light scenes, VISION3 
500T Film yields higher signal-to-noise ratios for 
unprecedented image quality.
BASE
KODAK VISION3 500T Color Negative Films 5219 and 
7219 have an acetate safety base with rem-jet backing.
KODAK VISION3 500T Color Negative Film SO-219 has

STORAGE
Store unexposed film at 13
°
C (55
°
F) or lower. For extended 
storage, store at -18
°
C (0
°
F) or lower. Process exposed film 
promptly. Store processed film according to the 
recommendations in ANSI/PIMA IT9.11-1998: for 
medium-term storage (minimum of ten years), store at 
10
°
C (50
°
F) or lower at a relative humidity of 20 to 30 
percent; for extended-term storage (for preservation of 
material having permanent value), store at 2
°
C (35
°
F) or 
lower at a relative humidity of 20 to 30 percent. For active 
use, store at 25
°
C (77
°
F) or lower, at a relative humidity of 
50 +/- 5 percent. This relates to optimized film handling 
rather than preservation; static, dust-attraction and 
curl-related problems are generally minimized at the 
higher relative humidity. After usage, the film should be 
returned to the appropriate medium- or long-term storage 
conditions as soon as possible.
For more information about medium- and long-term 
storage, see ANSI/PIMA IT9.11-1998, SMPTE RP131-2002, 
and KODAK Publications No. H-1, KODAK Motion Picture 
Film
 and No. H-23, The Book of Film Care.
EXPOSURE INDEXES
Tungsten (3200K) - 500   Daylight
1
 - 320
Use these indexes with incident- or reflected-light 
exposure meters and cameras marked for ISO or ASA 
speeds or exposure indexes. These indexes apply for meter 
readings of average subjects made from the camera 
position or for readings made from a gray card of 
18-percent reflectance held close to and in front of the 
subject. For unusually light- or dark-colored subjects, 
decrease or increase the exposure indicated by the meter 
accordingly.
COLOR BALANCE
These films are balanced for exposure with tungsten 
illumination (3200K). You can also expose them with 
tungsten lamps that have slightly higher or lower color 
temperatures (+/- 150K) without correction filters, since 
final color balancing can be done in printing. For other light 
sources, use the correction filters in the table below.
*
 These are approximate corrections only. Make final corrections during 
printing.
 These are starting-point recommendations for trial exposures. If the kind of 
lamp is unknown, a KODAK Color Compensating Filter CC 40R can be used 
with an exposure index (EI) of 250.
Note: Consult the manufacturer of high-intensity 
ultraviolet lamps for safety information on ultraviolet 
radiation and ozone generation.
