Review Summary

If you shoot a lot of B&W like I do, it is a very much film to go to. because of the price, it is very much like FP4 & FP5, closer to FP4 JMO, Very happy with it. I only give it 4 stares because it's not as good as something like Fuji across II but dam near 1/2 the price.

Its been a while since I've used film, and remember this brand finally from when I used it in college. Look forward to getting used to it again.

Great practice and study film. Forgiving as far as developing. Nice for contrast study training. Prints are more than acceptable. Great value.

I have been looking for a slower speed film for transparencies to project. Kentmere 100 is working out very well for that. The price is good for the high quality.

Have been using another private brand for awhile now but always had under exposure problems..always thought it was me Si ce I dont use a meter. I tried kentmere because of price and wow... My negatives came out with contrast and detail. Much more so than the previous film ive been using. So I ordered a bunch more. Only developed film ..have not printed yet but looking at the negatives, I know they come out fine

I have use, Adox 20/25, Ilford Pan F 50, (T) Grains and so on, this give the same if not better quality. Except for the Adox. You can Push this to 1600 with little to no problems. Although you should try and stay in the 50 - 200 range. This photo could have used a stop bath, and purified water, but still very good. Scanned on Epson V550, 16 bit, 72 dpi, at 3072 * 2048 px, TIFF.

Now i will first start by saying i am old enough to have only used film growing up. I will also admit then it was just to take pictures on various SLR cameras in the Navy and over seas for years. After looking back at some of my old negatives from pictures i took for years and comparing those to this film, i can honestly say i an EXTREMELY impressed with my results with my home developing and enlargements. When i did a proper exposure on my film the pictures were clear enough to make enlargements over 24" with no loss of resolution. I've used ilford, Kodak, Ansco, Arista, and Fuji films and for the prices, you get the best bang for your buck. Does this mean the others are bad... NO! But i just really like my B/W results from this film. Very clear and very crisp!

Great film and does well with every developer I've used - just a bit grainy for my taste in some of my low light shots - the shots outdoors seemed better. Perhaps less noticeable due to blown out areas.

This is one of my favorite films, despite the bargain price. I like developing semi-stand in HC-110 - beautiful edge effects and no blown highlights!

I really liked this film. It has fine grain and good contrast. This film and Fomapan 100 are my favorite ISO films on a budget.

This is a great low priced, and high quality film. Prints very nicely in the darkroom. Fine grained, good tonal range, and yes, it comes from the UK. So you can guess who makes it!

I've shot about 50 rolls of Kentmere 100 over the last few years. This film is lovely in D-76 1:1. I've also tried it at 1:3, and found it a little too grainy for me. It dries flat for easy scanning and storage. I've only made wet prints from this film once, but that one time they looked great. The more expensive 100 ISO films like Delta 100 or TMax 100 are probably technically better, but Kentmere is good enough for me and I would recommend it.

This all-purpose black and white film choice is more than adequate for any application I can think of and at a great price, to boot! Since film processing is so pricey today, it's great to find very good film at a great price from a name I can really trust -- Adorama!

Kentmere 100 is a very good value traditional slow black and white film. Grain is moderate to fine, with good detail, contrast and tonal range. I typically stand develop the film with Rodinal and get very pleasing results. Highly recommended.

After Kodak Tmax started getting too expensive I needed a more economically priced bulk film. This is it. Nice contrast, very smooth grain, processes with the same chemicals I am accustomed to (Kodak D76 and fixer). The film stock itself is thinner; it feels different when loading onto my developing spools. I noticed that when I first made the switch but now I'm used to it. Now on my 3rd bulk roll of Kentmere and have no plans to go back!

Lets just say I buy this film more that I do "K*d**" quality is amazing and grain is so fine, try a roll. I also consider this film personally to be a bit forgiving. I like this film and I highly recommend it. Beginner, Amateur, Pro, Hobbiest. I'm going to do an experiment with it if all goes well I'll share with you guys.
