It's daunting choosing film isn't it? Having taken thousands of photographs I have realised that there are just a handful of films that consistently give me the results that I want. Let's start with straight-forward colour photography.
If I want vibrant colours I use the reasonably priced Fuji's Superia X-TRA 400
It is a "fast film" which means that you can shoot in lower light without much grain. Most importantly though, it captures colour better than any other film that I have used. Don't be afraid to buy old stock - as long as it has been stored properly you are likely to have very few issues even a couple of years past the expiry date. It's also available in 35mm
