Built for Every Shooting Situation
When the light is unpredictable and the moment can't wait, Ilford HP5 Plus is the film you want loaded in your camera. This iconic panchromatic black and white negative film earns its reputation by delivering reliable, controlled results across an exceptionally wide range of lighting conditions — from bright outdoor scenes to challenging mixed or low-light environments.
With a nominal sensitivity of ISO 400/27° using standard black and white chemistry, HP5 Plus strikes the ideal balance between speed and image quality. Its wide exposure latitude means you get more usable frames even when exposure isn't perfect, while medium contrast gives you greater flexibility during development and printing. And when you need to push things further, this film responds beautifully to push processing — making it a trusted choice for documentary, street, portrait, and general photographic work.
Reliable, Versatile, Timeless
Each roll is supplied in a convenient DX-coded cassette, ensuring seamless compatibility with modern 35mm cameras. Whether you're an experienced darkroom practitioner or building your film photography practice, HP5 Plus delivers the consistency and creative range that photographers have relied on for decades.
