The Ortho Plus Black and White Negative Film is primarily used for capturing high-resolution landscape photographs in stunning black and white.
Unlike standard panchromatic films, the Ortho Plus film is sensitive to blue and green light, allowing it to be handled in deep red safelight conditions. This feature enhances the contrast in photos, with reds and oranges rendered darker.
The Ortho Plus film is DX coded for ISO 80, making it ideal for daylight or natural light shooting. For tungsten lighting, a manual ISO setting of 40 is recommended. Alternatively, a 1-stop exposure correction can be applied.
Development times for the Ortho Plus film can be found in the technical data sheet or inside the film cartons.

The Ortho Plus film stands out with its unique orthochromatic properties. Unlike standard panchromatic films, this film is sensitive to blue and green light, allowing it to be handled in deep red safelight conditions. This feature not only simplifies the processing and inspection process but also enhances the contrast and depth in your photos. Reds and oranges in your frame are rendered darker, creating a stronger contrast that adds a dramatic touch to your images.
Designed initially as a high-resolution copy film for negatives, the Ortho Plus has evolved into a versatile tool for photographers. Its DX coding for ISO 80 makes it ideal for daylight or natural light shooting. For those working under tungsten lighting, a manual ISO setting of 40 is recommended. Alternatively, a 1-stop exposure correction can be applied. Regardless of whether you're shooting at ISO 80 or 40, the Ortho Plus can be processed as standard, with development times available in the technical data sheet or inside the film cartons.
In the right hands, the Ortho Plus Black and White Negative Film can transform ordinary landscapes into extraordinary works of art. Capture the world in a new light with this exceptional black and white film.
