Ilford was founded in 1879 in the English town of the same name. They are B&W royalty in the photography industry thanks to their 140-year heritage and their support for photographers with chemicals and development as well as film. In the mid-20th Century they produced several well-regarded camera lines (including one given to Princess Elizabeth that was later stolen!) but today they are focused on producing the best films and development processes that they can.

My first analogue film in decades, with a camera I'd never tested. I miss-set the ISO at 100 for the whole roll but I love the grainy moodiness this film presents as a result.

Very pleased with the results from this film
This was (for me) a first test of this film on an old Pentax auto point-and-shoot that hadn't been used for many years, and I was surprisingly pleased with the results - in both exposure latitude, granularity and image definition. In a nutshell - well pleased!

Pretty good all rounder
I've used HP5 on and off over the last few years. Really convenient for the extra speed, letting me use a dark filter or shoot on a bad day (sample shot is from a 1950s Zeiss Contina with a yellow filter on a wet day), but the grain can be very intrusive and keeps putting me off it for a while. Worth the extra cost over Kentmere Pan 400.
