Performs wonderfully in the snow!

Whilst the film does have very low dynamic range it does lend itself to enhancing structure and geometry in landscape and architectural pictures. It's dramatic!

The film is very much prone to light piping so I always load before I go out.

Brilliant slow film

Didn’t really know what to expect from this film. Aware of the low iso rating I waited for some bright weather to shoot the film.
Was delighted of the results it captured great detail and produced some very atmospheric shots with very fine grain. I’m going to try it lower light. Was really impressed with it for portraits.

IR fun

Still my favourite IR sensitive film. Bang on a "black" filter and enjoy the otherworldly vegetation and properly dark skies.

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!).

Vintage film, retro camera

I wanted to use a b&w film for all round use in my La Sardina camera
Whilst the indoor shots were a bust, the outdoor images were ,uch, much better.
Film was developed by Analogue Wonderland; negatives were scanned at home using the Lomography DigitaLIZA and my Samsung S22 Ultra phone

Super sharp and great for IR photography

This film has great tonal range, insane sharpness and the bonus of Near IR sensitivity to add some fun when shooting with orange, red or R72 filters. ISO 50 does make it harder than other stocks for handheld but definitely workable on even a cloudy day.

Adox HR-50... please can I have more?

I suspected this film would be good and it didn't disappoint. If you want hard hitting contrast, search for another film. I found contrast is modest and the upside of that was good detail in shadows, whilst generally not losing the highlights. On flat grey days, it will reproduce the conditions you saw, but obviously at box speed of 50, a bit of sunlight helps the shooting.

I developed it in Adox's Atomal 49 and I like the results. Grain is very fine. I do want to try it in a different developer though for comparison.

Given the contrast and grain; next time I would want to shoot some ornate buildings. This film is going to shine with detailed scenes. Would I buy it again? Absolutely. In fact I checked Adox's web site to see if they also produce it in 120 or 5x4. They do mention this, though I haven't found evidence of any on sale. My TLR would love this film.

Low Grain and Detail

I tried out this Adox film in my Ricoh KR10 and was delighted with the results. Low grain, good sharpness and wonderful sky details without a filter. It is a film I will use again.

Nice balanced Film

Amazingly sharp film from adox, I was surprised by how forgiving the exposure latitude is with this, highly recommend for situations where you'll be shooting outdoor portraits wide open.

An interesting film at a good price.

I think this film is good for landscapes and cityscapes photography. ISO 50 is not very suitable for my favourite street photography genre, but you can make a good portrait with this film. It is declared as a "moderate contrast" film, but I find its contrast to be quite high. Overall, an good film at a good price.
