Adox HR-50 is a relatively new film from Adox and adapted from technical high-resolution film specially for regular use.

Set to 50 ISO this film will produce ultra-fine grain and moderate contrast - and has been designed with travel photography and cityscapes in mind.

Sensitive across the full range of visible spectrum, Adox HR-50 is a great film for experimenting with the use of different filters (including infrared!)

Datasheet

You can download the Adox HR-50 datasheet here

Adox is one of the oldest photographic brands in the world, established in Germany in 1860 by Dr. Carl Schleussner - who worked on early wet-collodion plates and X-ray plates. The company started marketing their own cameras in the early 20th Century, and introduced a line of B&W films in 1952 that became renowned for their sharpness of resolution.

A difficult end to the last century saw the brand change hands multiple times - and now Adox films are produced by Fotoimpex across manufacturing plants in Germany and Switzerland. Their products remain very high quality with a focus on emulsions that resolve incredible levels of detail and contrast.

Can also be depeloped as a negative!

Although there are no labs (to my knowledge) currently willing to develop into 35mm B&W Slide film (B&W Reversal) there is a kit made by adox and this film can also be developed as a negative by many film labs! All my photos in this review were processed like any normal B&W negative film.

Contrast-y

Due to it's low iso and incredible sharpness, it's amazing choice for daylight shoot-outs. Accessible shadow play.

a hidden gem - slow and smoooooth !

this is a really lovely film that feels a bit like Pan F but 'smoother'. It likes lots of light obviously but copes pretty well in contrasty situations. This in 120 would be very nice indeed.....

Slightly hit and miss for me

4 stars because when this hit it really was a BIG hit, with lovely detail, sharpness and nice contrast. But I had some shots where it just didn’t seem to perform - I guess with some more rolls I could work out more of the reasons for the hit and miss, but to be honest, I got as nice results (on the good side) from an Ilford 50, which I can develop with Ilfosol 3 (I did get some Ilfotec DDX to develop this, as Adox seems to be a bit fussy about what can be used, and I didn’t want to waste the roll!).
