Hadn't used FP4 for quite a while so decided I'd give it a go again. I was not disappointed! I rated it at 200 ISO and developed in Fomadon P, which is a clone of ID11. I got a long range of tones and very low grain; a great all rounder. Will use some more. :-)
First roll I shot through my new RB67. Came out amazing. Shot some at a lower iso and they still came out with great colour even in low light
So sharp. So beautiful. Developed here in Pyrocat HD at 1+1+100.
Pan F is among my favourite low speed films, especially when put behind some good quality glass!
A good film for beginners and professionals alike.
I only bought based on price to try a new camera body. BUT, turns out it's classic feeling emulsion with great halation effects & grain character. Seems to benefit from a little over-exposure. Fantastic value too!
Delivery was reasonably fast and very well packed. Tri-X for me is unrivalled black and white 35mm film. The contrasty look is right up my street and the grain is very fine.
So this is the first 'normal' film I've used since starting my little photography adventure. I brought it as I wanted to get better at taking pictures of skateboarding (sports in general).
While a lot is to be said for my general skill set as a photographer I think a handful of the pictures came out well and the film did exactly what it said on the tin
I mean, I should have read all the other praise this film was getting and I wouldn't of been so surprised!
This film (especially for its price) is spot on. Good indoors, good outside in either light or dark. I will 100% be using it again
Some great scans back from the Wondies, usual quality results from XP2.
The AnalogHeld Film Case is a durable, compact, and stylish way to protect our 120 films. Perfect for travel or everyday use, it keeps your rolls safe from dust and damage.
A must-have for us photographers who need quick and convenient access to our stash!
Did a roll on a dull old day up Norfolk.
Tones and latitude given a bit of a tickle in post.
Can't fault it much as usual.
Great film! It's cheap and works fine. That said, there's nothing outstanding about it - it just never fails to deliver good results. I also appreciate Ilford providing full information about developing and chemicals on the inside of the box. If you want a fantastic B&W film, I'd certainly recommend Kodak Tri-X or Ilford HP5 plus.
I bought this film from Analogue Wonderland and read it was short dated stock so with the weather being not so good I deicided to use my softbox and shoot my Figures. I'm a walking dead fan watching the series so it was good fun to shoot Tyrese.
How did I like the film, well its along time since I shot slide film so this was a challenge for me. Yes I would shoot this again, I pushed it 1 stop to 200 ISO because I wanted good Depth of Field. I am pleased I had a shoot on Slide Film again.
I've read somewhere that Harman said it's actually a 160 speed film that is branded as 200. IF you shoot it at 200 it comes out super contrasty - which I like personally.
Will take it for another spin at 125 and see how it goes & write a follow up review
This is being my first roll of B&W film, I can’t compare it to anything else, but this legendary film looks fantastic.
In order to prevent the two halves of the body getting pinched together I’ve added a couple of spacers to go on to the screws which hold the camera ‘body’ together which improves the appearance of the assembled camera. I asked Sparrow Fabrications to make a 3D printed part for another item to go with the Ring Light accessory and as part of the project he made the spacers and a useful tool to help in fitting them. Sparrow Fabrications can be found on eBay - use the advanced search facility to find the supplier name.
With a continuing dull February providing less than ideal conditions, this film performed well in low light. I'd love to see how it performs with some sunshine.
I was really excited to shoot Ultramax for the first time as one of the higher speed film Kodak offers, I enjoyed the colour and contrast however I was surprised by how grainy this film was. Not a problem for me as I love the look of a chunkier grain, however it’s worth mentioning I was shooting Gold pushed to 800 which produced much finer grain than this film did. I enjoyed the results of this film nonetheless!
This was my first time using Lomochrome turquoise. I expected to have fun with this film but not genuinely love the results like I did. This film is incredible, and with the right subjects can create amazing images. Fantastically sharp for such a small format too.
An interesting experimental film, blue shadows can be quite intense with the grain. Fun nonetheless!
I've had a bit of bad luck with Mr Negative films, either through my own amateur skill set, my camera chewing film up or struggling with what works best where but this film has come out like a dream!
Using an Olympus AF-10 super on a cute little walk down a canal in a nice sunny winters day in the Chilterns really worked for me and it probably is the best way to use it
Unfortunately it was a rather dull and overcast day when I shot this roll of film. I think it would have suited a brighter day better. These negative scans are my own and the results are variable. I would try this film again but on a sunny day.
Made my photos look great and quick turnaround too
This is the first film I developed with the AGO processor. I used the Massive Dev chart to set the developing time and reduced by 15% as it was continuous agitation - as recommended.
The negs seemed a bit thinner than expected but I couldn't say the developing time was out by much. The results are very dark and foreboding, looking more like Transylvania than the Yorkshire Dales. Interesting nevertheless and a good film to test out the new processor.
FPP do some unusual films which are great to experiment with, but I think a roll of HP5 might be a better test of my processing (and scanning).
