Ilford Delta Film 35mm B&W ISO 400
Description
Delta is a modern emulsion from Ilford - created with finer grain to provide sharp black and white images with excellent contrast. While this means the 35mm film is slightly less forgiving of wide exposure latitudes, the professional results when you nail the exposure will blow you away!

Ilford was founded in 1879 in the English town of the same name. They are B&W royalty in the photography industry thanks to their 140-year heritage and their support for photographers with chemicals and development as well as film. In the mid-20th Century they produced several well-regarded camera lines (including one given to Princess Elizabeth that was later stolen!) but today they are focused on producing the best films and development processes that they can.

I was looking for a low grain 400 asa film for landscape photography (not a tripod fan) so decided to give delta 400 a try. I developed in Ilfotec DDX and scanned on my Epson v550 and I have to say, I'm extremely satisfied with the results. I reckon the grain is on par with many 100asa speed films I've shot, the tonality is beautiful and also very sharp. I think I've found my go to film for all handheld landscape photography.
I like to try new film although Delta is outside my usual comfort zone of films like HP5 and Tri-x which offer a nice latitude and are very forgiving. I've read that if you nail your exposures with Delta you can get very crisp detail in both your highlights and shadows. While I was happy with the final images - I like grain - it wasn't what I was expecting. I processed the images in Ilfotec D-DX and shot them on a Canon 7 with a Jupiter 8 lens. I metered with my Sekonic handheld - as I say, I liked the final images but they were not what I was expecting. I'd like to shoot this film again to see if I can achieve those finer results the film promises but I'm not in any rush as I'd rather have the latitude offered by other films which can be more forgiving and can produce just as fine results to my eyes.
