FomaPan 400 is perfect for sports: with the Action film loaded in your medium format camera, you will not have to worry about low-light situations or fast-moving subjects.
Rated at 400 but with the ability to deliver great results at 3200, this is a fantastic black and white emulsion.
**In celebration of their 100-year anniversary, Foma have released a limited run of their 35mm films in special edition packaging. It is inspired by the historical design of FOMAPAN films and is only available while stocks last! Simple select 'Anniversary' from the packaging drop-down 😍 **
Foma traces its origins back to Prague in 1919. They have remained in the Czech Rupublic ever since, working throughout the past century on different films, papers and chemicals for use by medical schools and the military - as well as ordinary photographers in Eastern Europe. Their black and white films are the result of decades of expertise - you will not be disappointed!

This has so far been my favourite black and white film. Can't wait to explore it more 😀 the other black and whites I have used haven't turned out this good! I'm slightly new to all this, so maybe it's me. But I'm so so happy with these photos. I'll defi alty purchase this again

One more for the road (street)
Ok. It's not Tri X. But neither is it the price of Tri X. If you want, you can push this at least a couple of stops. But you will get a marked increase in grain and contrast. Or, if you want: grit. But, personally; I love that!

Good 'ole grain
If you like grain and contrast, go for it. This was pushed to 1600, and dev'd in Rodinal.

Great images full of character
Fomapan 400 is, in my opinion, the best budget black and white film. It allows you to produce high contrast, vintage looking pictures, and has quite a prominent (but not unpleasing) grain. It produces the kind of images I could not achieve with a digital camera, which is what film is all about for me! Due to the grain I probably wouldn't recommend it for anything requiring detail like landscapes or macro, but it's perfect for street photography.

Beautiful grain for the Petronas Towers
I visited Kuala Lumpur August / September 2024 and the Petronas Towers. I am really pleased with how this film stock has captured the images of the Petronas Towers. The grain seems to really complement the metallic qualities of the structure. All shot on an Olympus Trip 35.
