Choose your film look
From vibrant colour to timeless black & white,
find the style that matches your vision.
Colour Film
Colour film captures the world as you see it- rich, vibrant, and full of life. It’s the most versatile choice, perfect for travel, everyday moments, and sunny outdoor shooting.
Ideal if you want reliable, true-to-life results with minimal effort. Choose colour film if you want an easy, go-to option that works in almost any situation.
Black and White Film
Black & white film strips photography back to its essentials - light, shadow, and emotion. It’s perfect for street photography, portraits, and artistic shooting where contrast and texture matter most.
It also offers greater flexibility in development and exposure. Choose B&W if you want timeless images with a classic feel.
Portrait Film
Portrait film is designed to flatter - soft contrast, natural skin tones, and fine grain make it ideal for photographing people. Most commonly found in 35mm and 120 formats, it excels in controlled lighting or outdoor portraits.
Whether you’re shooting professionally or capturing personal moments, choose portrait film for smooth, natural-looking results that make subjects stand out.
Low-Light & Cinematic Film
Low light and cinematic films are built for atmosphere - handling artificial light, night scenes, and moody environments with ease.
Typically higher ISO (often 400–800+), and available mainly in 35mm and 120, they produce distinctive tones, halation, and cinematic colour shifts.
Choose this type if you want to shoot in challenging lighting or create a dramatic, filmic look.
Creative & Experimental Film
Creative and experimental films push beyond the ordinary - unexpected colours, heavy grain, light leaks, or unique effects make every shot unpredictable and expressive.
Often available in 35mm (with some 120 options), they’re perfect for artistic projects, fashion, or just having fun. Choose experimental film if you want to break the rules and create something visually unique.

Shot on Colour
Shot using Kodak Ektar - 120 Film by @njm_fliicks
"Beautiful film stock. Underrated in my opinion. This was the first time using Ektar in 120, and it's beautiful. I was really impressed with the results, and for landscapes, I will absolutely shoot this again!"
Shot on Black & White
Shot using Ilford HP5 Plus - 35mm Film by @geraintrobertsphoto
"This is my B&W film of choice, just great all round"
Shot on Portrait
Shot using CineStill 50D - 35mm Film
by Stephane L
"I tried the Cine Still 50D for a portrait shoot on location on an overcast day and it didn't disappoint. I fell in love with the colour rendition and the contrast straight away. When the scans came back from the lab I was impressed."
Shot on Low-Light & Cinematic
Shot using Kodak Portra 800 - 35mm Film by @michele.warren.75
"This was my first roll of Portra 800 and it just took my breath away when I saw the results. I wanted it for a visit to Bletchley Park, including indoor, hand-held shots, and inevitably I had a rather unfairly cinematic mental image of what I might like to capture. The film must have read my mind! The light was often even lower than I envisaged so I was sometimes on the edge of what felt sensible, but it gave me back stunningly rich colours and the feeling of being somewhere really special."
