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.

Th'ass an ee-grut buh
Never been much into nature photography, mainly because I have the patience of a small orange-coloured fish related to the common carp.
But I saw this little white bird up the harbour, against a black background and had a pop.
"Th'ass an ee-grut buy," some old boy with one of those massive telescopes said.
This was quite a pull-up, ie about a third of the frame but still sharp and not too-grainy.
Loved the not too lumpy pictures of the boats from a right dull old day as well.
The Wondies always seem to exceed expectations when you ping them XP2.

A great first impression into the film world.
I wanted a nice and cheap film to run through an old film camera which I inherited to make sure it was all working, and I must say I was extremely pleased with this roll. There was lovely character to it with a rough grain, and was very contrasty too. Would recommend to anyone who wants a good black and white film to use.
My fave B&W - I have shot a few rolls now through other cameras, always consistent - Highly recommended - low res supplied for review - the high res you can count the bricks of the architecturally brutalist Guidford Cathedral.

Great as a test roll, with impressive sharpness and latitude
I've taken to using XP2 as a test roll, as being a C41 film it's convenient to get developed by high street stores with a quick turnaround - that being said, I'm often impressed by it's sharpness and latitude when compared to my usual preference of HP5 & Kentmere 400, and scans well!
