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.

Lots of contrast and a good fine grain, shot at ASA of 40 to accomodate the yellow filter (1 stop). Good results

Four to five stars
Lovely quality when used carefully. Be very careful not to overdevelop, as it blows the highlights. It is often a good idea to overexposed by one stop and then underdevelop by 30%.

Still here after all these years
Ilford Pan F was one of the first black and white films I used when I first developed and printed my films when did my GCSE and A level photography courses back in the 80s and when I returned to film photography after a substantial break post COVID, I was extremely pleased to see it's still available today. A high class punchy professional grade film that has recently become available in sheet film too. However it does degrade rather quickly so not one to leave in your camera once used. Shoot quick and develop quick.

Lots of nice detail in the shadows
Decent film - lovely detail in portraits. Natural light fairly contrasty.

Strong contrast and acutance
Pan F has great acutance and contrast, especially in developers like Rodinal. Sometimes a little underdevelopment is necessary to tame contrast, but by all means but yourselves a roll!
