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.

Ilford HP4 Plus is a film I managed to receive cheap via an Amazon sale and while I enjoyed the results, it does lack a lot of the character that I look for in a B&W film. Clean exposures with a lot of detail but a bit sterile to my taste. It may be because British weather often doesn't give it the light it needs to shine while ISO 400 films truly unlock their brilliance in the UK clouded light. I don't know. Still, a fun film.
This is one of my favourite films, the grain is fine and gorgeous, it handles highlights beautifully along with great tones. I’ve developed this in both DF96 and Rodinal with great results. Doesn’t push brilliantly though, anything more than iso 200 starts to suffer a bit (in my opinion). A perfect fine grained film in my book!
This is a great fine grain film that retains detail really well. I've found that when pushing the film it quickly gets very contrasty. I'd recommend this for UK summertime, when you're guaranteed slightly more than 2 hrs daylight averager per day.
This is a lovely film with smooth grain and fine tones. Particularly good for portraits but can be used as a great all-rounder when there's enough light.
I bought this film specifically for a special occasion (something needing fine grain), although nothing specific until I read about some World War 2 era Dakota troop transport planes that were travelling from the United States all the way to England and then France, via Prestwick airport, which happens to be close to where I live. Long story short, I had to go to the airport and photograph these beautiful old machines and capture something of them before time finally takes its toll and they stop flying.
The conditions were awful for a slow film, but it was all I had and luckily it seemed to manage well. I developed in Cinestill DF96 and scanned on a Epson V550 and the results were pretty good. I've got another roll waiting for the next special occasion!
