Pleasantly surprised

Usually when a film stock is on sale it's short dated. Or even expired. All the film I ordered was fresh batches that don't expire for a few years. Not that I'd be worried about bw film being expired but nice to see.

My go-to film for decades, HP5 shines in many situations.

I've used HP5 for decades, from 35 to 4x5, and it's nearly my only film now. I use only D-23, but I can get just about any kind of negative I need with thoughtful exposure and processing. In 4x5, that typically means anything from a very long-range scene to a very flat one, with ratings from 200 to 800. My work does not require the high acutance and absolutely grainless appearance that some require from enormous prints. Remember that even a 16x20 is only just over a 4x enlargement, so even with significant cropping, a 4x5 neg printed to 11x14 is grainless (and 645 negs very fine grain indeed). The speed and versatility of this film are reliable and often a choice for fine printers.

A really solid cheap film

For the price of $6 bucks a roll the film is really nice to use an the photos come out great. If you aren't afraid to get a little stylistic push it 2 stops for stunning (if grainy) contrast.

Long, long life

I’ve had this brand of film unused in 8X10 holders stored in my basement for 7 years, not even protected from moisture or humidity. COVID caused me to get out my old Korona (!) and test the film in it. Eureka! - perfect results! So I used it for a Christmas portrait of my little granddaughters. Their Mom’s so happy with it she’ll use it for their card.

FEATURED REVIEWS

dependable film, great images

By jblackdub

I have always preferred Ilford films to Kodak and Fuji for black and white. HP5 is a time tested favorite of mine and the 4x5 format is great for this film

Great Film, Great Price!

By karma

This is the best price I've found for this film.

Just imagine capturing the world around you in stunning monochrome with the HP-5 Plus 400 Fast Black and White Professional Film. This ISO 400, 35mm film is perfect for action shots, low-light environments, and general-purpose photography, offering you the flexibility to shoot in a variety of conditions.

The HP-5 Plus is more than just an ISO 400/27½ film. Its unique formulation allows for extended development with certain developers, such as ILFORD ILFOTEC HC and ILFORD MICROPHEN, enabling meter settings up to EI 3200/36. This feature makes it an exceptional choice for photography where poor lighting and moving subjects demand the highest emulsion sensitivity.

Designed to deliver optimum results under diverse lighting conditions, this film is compatible with all current processing systems, including those that provide standard short fixing and washing times. Its robust nature during processing ensures excellent results under most conditions and tolerates less than ideal processing environments.

The HP-5 Plus 35mm film comes in DX Coded cassettes, which automatically set the film speed of ISO 400/27½ on automatic 35mm cameras. These sturdy cassettes feature end caps securely fixed to the body, ensuring they stay in place even during rough handling. The tangential style cassette, combined with the film's low friction characteristics, allows for easy film advancement, conserving battery wear.

This professional film boasts fine grain, sharp edge contrast, and superior sharpness, resulting in excellent image quality. Its base tint facilitates easy print contrast assessment on a light box, and for easy negative identification, it features bold frame numbering for whole frames and letters to indicate half frame numbering.

Experience the outstanding brightness and full tonal range that the HP-5 Plus 400 Fast Black and White Professional Film offers, and bring your photography to life in beautiful black and white.
