ILFORD HP5+ 400 135/36

A highly sensitive, versatile film with a traditional cubic grain structure. Together with FP4+, it is one of Ilford’s classic films. Alongside Kodak TRI-X, it is considered a classic choice for reportage photography.

The film has been available for decades and has proven itself over time.


Compared to Ilford HP5+, Ilford Delta 400 and Ilford XP2 Super 400 stand out with higher resolution, greater sharpness, and finer grain. However, HP5+ is somewhat more flexible when pushed beyond EI 800/30°.

If necessary, HP5+ can be pushed up to EI 3200/36°.
