This review is from: Kodak Black and White Film (Single Pack) (Electronics)

I bought this ish so I could develop it in my darkroom on my own, but then i found out you aren't supposed to process it in B/W chemicals. So it was useless.

Amazon doesn't tell you this, but it says on the box: "Do not process in Black & White chemicals. Ask for regular color processing."

Just FYI-ing yall.

as for the quality, my prints looked pretty good after i took them to a commercial developer.

This review is from: Kodak Black and White Film (Single Pack) (Electronics)

As the first reviewer noted, this is not "traditional" black and white film. This is for the consumer market so it can be easily developed on color processing equipment. Have tried a few rolls and the whites come out off-white and contrast is low. Well-processed traditional B&W prints will last 100+ years. No way to know how prints from this film will look in a few decades. If you are taking family photos, go to the expense and trouble of buying regular Kodak B&W film and have it professionally processed. Your great-great-grandchildren will thank you.
