Setup, Compatibility & Care
Ilford FP4 Plus is a traditional black and white negative film and requires standard photographic development processes.
Compatibility:
- Cameras: Compatible with any camera that accepts 8x10" sheet film, including large format view cameras.
- Development: Can be processed in standard black and white photographic developers (e.g., Ilford ID-11, Kodak D-76). Follow specific developer instructions for dilution and time.
- Scanning/Printing: Negatives can be scanned using a flatbed or dedicated film scanner, or printed in a darkroom using an enlarger.
Care:
- Storage: Store unexposed film in a cool, dry place (ideally below 13°C/55°F) and away from direct sunlight or radiation. Exposed film should be developed as soon as possible.
- Handling: Handle sheets by the edges to avoid fingerprints on the emulsion. Use a changing bag or darkroom for loading into film holders.
