HP5 consistent and flexible.

I enjoyed the consistency and flexibility of this film, especially when developed in Rodinal 1+50. I have tried boutique or small company films, but have had inconsistent results that won't do for assignment work or special family events. I keep coming back to this film, since it has never failed me.

Good Customer Service on Frustrating Experience

This is great film at a fair price. Unfortunately I made a huge order to stock up and then it got stolen off my porch. To their credit, adorama worked with me and stayed on top of UPS to get me a refund. Frustrating experience but Adorama handled it well and I would order from them again.

Great for medium-format shooting

The high ISO of Ilford HP5 offsets the handicap of slower medium format lenses, yet its tonal range is wide and its grain is well controlled.

Ideal for novice film photographer

From my perspective of a novice in film photography, Ilford HP5+ is an ideal b&w film. The exposure latitude is forgiving. The 400 ISO is versatile for a lot of lighting situations. Probably most importantly, it's pretty affordable. I feel comfortable experimenting a bit without being as worried as I would about wasting a roll of $18 film.

Still the (modern) king of B/W

What can you say about HP5?it?s my go-to BW film stock and the only one I buy bricks of these days. Beautiful tonality and flexible for whatever your style. Best all-arounder. And of course Adorama FTW.

HP5 stars

HP5 is flexible with low grain and looks great with the Matt Day special- metered at 800 and pushed +2 in processing. Versatile, reliable, and virtually fool proof.

beautiful film weirdly packaged

beautiful film! I would suggest y'all start packaging it in metal canisters though, the entire roll is just inside an unsealed black bag inside of the box it comes in so it doesn't feel as well protected from the light as bulk rolls in metal canisters come! thanks though!

Great Film!

This is my go to film for general photography. It has great latitude and a consistent look. I have pushed it to 3200 with great results although I typically shoot it at box speed.

About Ilford HP-5 Plus

FEATURED REVIEWS

Most versatile film

By Sharon K.

Ilford's HP5+ is one of the best films on the market today. Versatility is a word that describes it well. It can be used for fine art photography, street photography, low light, and any number of other situations. With the correct developer you can achive ISO speeds up to 3200! I would not advise this film if you are looking for fine grain.

I really love the look of HP5

By Stephen A.

I've always heard Tri-X is the best black and white film, but to be perfectly frank, I really love the look of HP5. It's not as contrasty, so if high contrast is what you want, perhaps it's better to stick to the classic; but what I do notice is that there is a lot more tonal range in this film, and that it pushes very well. Shooting at speed renders clean images, articulate, detailed, not particularly grainy; pushed to 800 and the grain becomes more apparent but not in an unflattering way.

Before you capture your next masterpiece, consider the ILFORD HP5 PLUS Black and White Film. This high-speed, fine-grain film is renowned for its medium contrast, making it an exceptional choice for a variety of photography genres, including journalism, documentary, travel, sports, and indoor photography in available light conditions.

With a nominal rating of ISO 400, the HP5 PLUS is designed to produce negatives of superior sharpness and fine grain, regardless of the lighting conditions. This versatile film has been expertly formulated to respond well to push-processing, with the capability to be rated up to El 3200/36½.

Its wide exposure latitude makes it an ideal choice not only for beginners and those returning to film photography but also for more experienced professional users. The HP5 PLUS is compatible with a broad range of developers and can be processed using spiral tanks, deep tanks, and automatic processors.

In this pack, you'll receive five rolls of this high-quality, durable, and reliable 35mm film, each with 36 exposures. Whether you're a professional photographer or a hobbyist, the ILFORD HP5 PLUS Black and White Film offers the quality and versatility you need to bring your vision to life.
