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.

Red-bias film, so don't mess about shooting blues and greens with it - go. full-red. I love the grain and the contrast. Exposure is good, better in good light. Really enjoyed shooting this film and I'm making a red-themed frame set of the best shots.
This film is Harman Phoenix (original) rolled backwards so that the light goes through the emulsion in the opposite direction, this means the shorter wavelength light is blocked causing the red colour and a reduced ISO sensitivity.
I tried it out as it is a limited edition film and I've never tried redscale film before, the results were interesting but I don't think quite as exciting as other experimental films like Lomo Purple. I would say to treat this like a black and white film and look for compositions with contrast and form rather than use it for travel as I did.
I really want to like Phoenix but it doesn't make it easy for me! I get the interesting colours, but I find it very fussy about light, incredibly grainy in anything other than very full lighting. Looking forward to trying its upgrade.
Used this sim on a photowalk in Brixton. The film was supplied for free by Harman, and it wouldn't have been my first choice, however I did get some nice shots.
You can get some nice colour shifts and certain subjects really work well with this film. It also does work very well with street photography.
I did get some interesting light patterns on the scans of the first 5 or 6 shots, and the redscale nature of the film seems to have played havoc with the scanner that was used meaning effects were very inconsistent across the shots.
I LOVE this film, I like to shoot industrial areas which are quite imposing, mechanical and brutal, Harman red compliments this perfectly and makes for some excellent shots
