Description
Following the success of Phoenix, Harman Photo continues its colour film journey with HARMAN RED 125 - a brand-new, professionally finished redscale film that transforms everyday scenes into cinematic masterpieces.
This ISO 125, 36-exposure 35mm film is designed for those who love to experiment, offering a dramatic colour palette focused on reds, oranges, yellows, and greens. Developed using standard C-41 processing, it delivers high contrast, bold vibrancy, and a beautifully grainy texture, making every shot stand out.
Built from the Harman Phoenix 200 emulsion, HARMAN RED 125 takes full advantage of its high red sensitivity and lack of an anti-halation layer, making it a perfect fit for redscale conversion.

Features and Benefits:
- Professionally Finished Redscale Film with Bold Tones: Designed for experimental and creative photographers, this redscale film delivers rich reds, fiery oranges, and deep yellows with high contrast and a beautifully grainy texture. Whether you're capturing dramatic landscapes, moody urban scenes, or artistic portraits, every frame is infused with cinematic character and depth.
- Built on Harman Phoenix Emulsion: With high red sensitivity and no anti-halation layer, this film reverses the Harman Phoenix emulsion to create a signature redscale effect, providing deep, moody hues while maintaining flexibility for different lighting conditions.
- Versatile ISO Range with Creative Flexibility: With a DX-coded cassette, this film is rated at ISO 125 but with the ability to be shot between ISO 50 and 400, giving you full creative control. Underexposing results in coarser grain, deep reds, and strong shadows, while normal exposure produces consistent orange tones and balanced contrast. Overexposing delivers fine grain, bright highlights, and unexpected colour shifts - perfect for experimentation.

Harman Red felt surprisingly familiar as someone who shoots predominantly black and white, despite it's notably Red appearance.
Interesting variation in tone can be achieved based on your exposure, becoming "Pinkscale" in some instances.
Excellent way to take some photos that look very different, much easier than respooling your own film. ISO speed is just about right. Is at a fair price.
I was lucky enough to get two rolls of Red as a present (bought from AW, of course) and had not used a redscale film before. I shot the first on my point & shoot, to relinquish control further and embrace its little light leaks as part of the experiment. The film certainly lived up to its marketing of dystopian and apocalyptic, so much so that I found some of the results a bit unnerving. Some of the shadows had purple in them, which I hadn't expected but was rather fun. The halation works well here too, I thought.
I'm looking forward to trying the other roll, more likely in my SLR to have more control, and will maybe try giving it a bit more light now and then.
Thanks to the AW lab team as always!
It's so red and orange. Perfect to shoot for Spain weather.
New Year's Res: Do not buy film when you've had a few glasses from the sun-soaked slopes of Sicily.
So like that lasted all of a week (or maybe two...) before the Wondiemonster struck again and the postie brought me a roll of this stuff in a red van.
I don't know if my postie takes pictures on film, but if he did he'd probably use this because he obviously likes his reds.
And while I don't know whether you'd call the results first class, it's certainly different.
Quite grainy for 125 ISO. But if I wanted perfection I'd shoot it on a digital doo-dah.
And now the New Year's resolution's well and truly in the bin, I'm going to get another roll and load it up into an old hurdy gurdy to waste a few more wine tokens on some sunsets.
These are all straight out of camera as I'm guessing they'd end up looking like that film where Matt Damon gets stuck on Mars if I tried to bump anything up.
