New Favourite

Really like this film, it's become my new favourite colour 35mm film. Nice colours and plenty of detail. Grain isn't too strong. Has a really nice feel about it.

Good for scanning

I found this better for scanning than darkroom printing. It's very sensitive to contrast and to what developer you use.

Growing on me

I didn't like this film at first. Not sure why, just didn't know how to handle it.

But now it's growing on me. I think I'll stick to 120 on this film though, for less noticeable grain.

A giant amongst film

Best of all in medium format for incredible detail. Sample negative shown was rated at 800 ISO and developed in Adox XT-3 (an Xtol clone) at a dilution of 1+1.

A million stars

I was looking for something to fill the space left by the wonderful Agfa colour negative films that are no more. I love this stuff just as much - gorgeous colours with a unique palette and suitable for any situation where the colours are the essence of the story.

First ever film I used, I think I messed it up

This is the first ever film I used, pretty sure I was on the wrong ISO, didn't hold my camera steady or know what I'm doing in general

A couple shots came out ok

Verrrrryyy expensive but kinda cool

My first time ever using a 'souped' film. Be aware it carries an additional £5 processing fee as they need to change the development fluid.
A bit of a mixed bag with my experience with this film. On one hand the chemicals they used affected the film so much that it curled up, came off the reel and I had to open up the back of my camera, over exposing the film and wind it back on.
The other side is that the 4/5 decent images I took I really love, they are proper trippy and gave off a real folky autumn vibe.

So, I'd say use at your own risk and be prepared to pay the costs but you might get something quite magical out of it.

Cool but not sure if worth the money

First time using this film and to be fair some of the pictures came out quite nice but yeah, very random effect and a lot of waste.

Worth giving a go for fun but it's got quite a hefty price tag

Didn't get on with it

Very new to photography so please take this review with a pinch of salt!
The film itself did really bring out greens and reds but outside of this (and this may bey skill set) I didn't particularly enjoy how many of my photos came out

Perfect for: Beginners

Really loved this film

Totally new to photography bar mobile phones so was keen to get something 'real' in my hands. Not really knowing what I'm up to and using a Konika C35 the Derev 100 B&W has been real nice. It picks up detail and light well with some variety of outcomes depending the time of day.
All photos taken outside so not sure how it fairs inside.

Great film at the price

Great film with good contrast and details, but retaining the ‘old’ look

Harman Phoenix - 35mm Film

Something a bit different - a lot of fun!

For a first try, I put Phoenix through my old trusty point-and-shoot at box speed (200) to see what I was working with. I see why a lot of folk recommend to shoot at 100 or 125, but I enjoy the dark and moody shadows. The halation is fun too, and this film loves orange/red tones! Would recommend for red brickwork, or maybe Halloween shots. Whilst not as versatile as a standard film such as Gold, I will definitely be shooting more now I know what to expect.

Fun film, limited use

The results are fun, but more pronounced and aesthetically pleasing where there's more nature, and nice sunny weather which limits it's use.
Still fun to play around with though 😉

Great film

I really enjoyed the contrast of this film. Would love to shoot it again, hope they bring it back…

Couldn’t be easier

You choose your film type, you choose how they come back to you, you print off or use a label that came with a previous purchase, box the film up, send it off and await the scans. Job done.

Top quality service!

After getting back into photography, and enjoying the challenge of film, I found Analogue Wonderland - the experience has been (and will continue to be) superb from start to finish. Great results from my developed images, quick process, and I especially like the updates as to when photo scans are likely to be uploaded. Thank you - enjoy some sample shots!

Good film

Good film, but I've expected more. It's better to use in sunny day. But unexpected good result at night.

Great result

I've sent to the lab 4 different films and I'm very satisfied of the result.
