Ilford Ortho Plus is an orthochromatic black and white film with an ISO rating of 80 for daylight / natural light or 40 for use under Tungsten light sources.

Formally available as sheet film for printing and reproduction industries it was designed as a high-resolution copy film for negatives. It offers superb photographic potential thanks to its fine grain and sharpness. the blue and green sensitivity enables the film to be handled in red safelight and allows processing by inspection.

This versatile film allows you to fine-tune the contrast by the choice of developer, the exposure given and the development time.

In photography though it is suited for landscape photography, the blue and green sensitivity of this emulsion enables the film to be handled in deep red safelight conditions making processing and inspection easier.

Its lack of red sensitivity also means that reds and oranges are rendered darker with stronger contrast than standard panchromatic films. photographs

Nik & Trick may be small, but we are now making the biggest impression in traditional photography because nobody loves film lovers like we do. 

Unfortunately Ebay are a very dictatorial organisation and keep telling us off for mentioning the more accepted internet ways to contact us, ways that would allow us to help you with advice or information on how to best use the products we offer.  For this, we apologise on their behalf.

However, you should know that we love film photography...and we hope it assures you to know that, no other retailers use their own products and test them for you like we do and share the results! 


Enjoy your photography!
