This film is what i had expected. Professional quality at a great price; And it shipped early!

Ilford is a pretty decent film for black and white photography and I am rarely disappointed with the results I get from it.

This film is great for walking around and taking snapshots. It's cheap, it's good quality, I can get great shadows and highlights. I also like the fast developing time. But the difference between this and the Delta is noticeable and the price difference isn't that much. I'd spend the extra fifty cents and go for the Delta for anything more than snapshots.

I loaded up my camera with some and took it to a party. The light was a bit low (as in, almost none) so I exposed at 3200. The result was grain you can drive a truck through, but I was surprised at how well the images came out with that much pushing, much better than even Tri-X pushed one stop less.

Digital sucks donkey turds. 120 kicks 35mm ass. Ilford is the best for black and white. If you are shooting live action back-alley bare knuckled beatdowns under a halogen lamp during a tenderloin lightning storm, this is the film for you.
Ilford is from England, luckily this film doesnt have teeth so it's viewable without nausea. But you can smell stilton stout flavored burps when you open the packaging.
Diana Ross hates this film it says it makes her look old and ashy. But who cares?

I use this for my Holga camera. I just wish places like Target or Walgreens developed 120 film. The results are almost perfect. I miss using film.

I never received this portion of my package, the camera is great... as is the shutter release... but no film!!! Exteremly dissatisfied with this seller. I expect to be reimbursed or to have the order filled! :/
