Perfectly suited for outdoor environments bathed in natural light and indoor settings with supplementary lighting, P30's 80 ISO exposure index provides flexibility and versatility.

The popularity of P30's look in cinema was so immense that in 1958, a special version was specifically developed for still photography.
