Good for test footage. It's no FP5 or Delta 100 or Double X (my personal favorite b+w negatives). I used a couple of rolls to do some scratch tests in a 35-3 and 435.

Gets the job done.

I love this film! It gives great contrast there is very little grain on the 100iso. This has become my favorite B&W film.

Great B&W film

arista edu is the only black and white film i shoot. i absolutely love the tones, the contrast, the shadows, the softness. i shoot mostly expired color film and this film gives me old film vibes.

my go to black and white film

My go-to for inexpensive BW film.  The most recent rolls have white paper instead of black, and the base seems a bit more pink than the previous blue.  Developing is still the same.

Old reliable

I bought this film because it was cheap and I wanted to experiment with alternative development techniques, and now I wish I?d bought it sooner. This film stock is EVERYTHING!!! Buy without afterthought, this is what you want.

My new favorite BW film stock

The film has a good grain structure and is very inexpensive.  I recommend it to anyone wanting to try black and white but don't want to pay Kodak prices. It is very easy to develop on your own.

Great film for the price and for beginners

Arista 100 (which is basically repackaged Foma 100) is a wonderful, classic looking Black and White film at an unbeatable price - it's almost always the least expensive or near least expensive photographic film on the internet at any given moment.

This is a very old fashioned film - like all Foma films, it's "true speed" is somewhat slower than its box speed (probably closer to EI 80 or 64). It's also grainier than, for example, FP4. But it has a beautiful tonality, isn't finicky in the development process, and comes in all the major formats. 

If you're new to analog photography, budget conscious, or just want an "retro" sort of look, this is a perfect choice.

Good bargain option

I really like this film, and the contrast was excellent developed in HC-110 dil H for 8 minutes. Delivery by Adorama was also excellent. Film arrived before expected date, which is always nice.

Glad I tried this film

Good contrast and expected grain for the speed and price. Would buy again!

Would buy again

I have used both the Arista Ultra 100 and 200 in 4x5 sheets and have found them both to be perfectly acceptable films. In fact, it’s hard for me to tell the difference between the two fine-grain films. I expose them both @ ISO 100 and process them with identical times, agitation, and developer dilutions. (With HC-110, 1:19, the developing times are about 25% shorter than those I use for Tri-X or HP-5.) They do have a few peculiarities: very thin emulsion layers, a vivid green anti-halation layer that turns your chemistry green - even after presoaking, and identical notch codes. I have heard that the thin emulsion layer is prone to scratches, but I haven't had any scratching problems. To date, I have made more contact proofs than enlargements. However, based on inspection with a loupe on my light table, after making a few minor processing adjustments I can consistently achieve good detail in both shadows and highlights.
