Unique, handmade black and white orthochromatic film on traditional Japanese Washi paper. Thanks to the paper texture, the photographs enlarged from these negatives look like the works of pictorialists.
The light-sensitive layer is applied to high-quality Kozo paper (a type of Japanese paper made from mulberry fibers). It has a parchment-like, semi-transparent character and is extremely stable, flexible and strong.

Images made from Washi film also have a paper-like texture; in 35mm format, this effect is naturally stronger than in medium-format films because there is a greater ratio of enlargement of the parchment texture.
The gradation of the film is very contrasting.
This orthochromatic film has a base sensitivity of 25 ISO (when developed in Tetenal Eukobrom positive developer at 1:1 dilution). It is sensitive to the blue end of the light spectrum and insensitive to the red end. This means that Washi films can be developed under red safety light (> 545nm).
The film comes from a small French factory, is handmade and requires to be handled gently throughout the process. Washi paper has been produced in Japan for several centuries due to its excellent properties.
It is highly sensitive to the blue part of the light spectrum, less sensitive to the green and insensitive to the red part. Those qualities are best suited for portrait, still life and urban photography.
Only a traditional developing method or a quality scanner will reveal the potential that lies within this film.
Our tips:
As this is a high contrast film, accurate exposure is important.
For portraiture, meter the exposure directly on the subject.
Its qualities are most apparent when shooting less contrasting scenes.
It is ideal for use in pinhole cameras. Its light-sensitive emulsion is similar to that used for photo paper, so the long exposures needed for pinhole cameras are not a problem.
Parameters:
Sensitivity: 25 ISO Planfilm size: 4x5" Number of sheets per pack:12

Black and white negative roll film. It is characterized by fine grain, extremely high resolution and exposure flexibility.
The price is for 1 piece of film.
The new emulsion technology of layered flat silver halide crystals has made it possible to significantly change the conventional ratio between sensitivity, resolution, granularity and speed of development. This has enabled the development of ISO 400/27° sensitivity film, which has comparable properties to other ISO 100/21° films
Highly sensitive, panchromatic black-and-white negative film, with high sharpness performance on a transparent carrier. It is a reliable film, even under changing light conditions (Available Light photography).
