Turning your negatives into positives
Reversal processing enables black and white transparencies to be produced directly from high quality films such as PAN F Plus, FP4 Plus and DELTA 100 PROFESSIONAL
How it works
It starts with the development of the negative image. This leaves the unused silver halide untouched, but it is not fixed, as it will be used later to form the positive image. After the negative image has been developed, it is totally bleached away using an acid bleach. This leaves the remainin...
We're heading into festival season and although wellies are the the 'go to' festival wear here in the UK, we know that some of your summers actually feature sunshine! For this week's #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites we set the theme of #music.

Below are some of the common errors that can occur when processing black and white films. Unfortunately some of these errors can result in the images being lost or partially ruined. By knowing what has caused the errors, you may hopefully prevent any repeat incidents.
Film entirely blank - No visible images or edge signing
A completely blank film with no images and no signing (i.e text in the perforation areas showing product and numbers) - indicates the film has received no development at all.

Our DELTA PROFESSIONAL films use the latest film emulsion technology which gives them the advantage of a lower grain to speed ratio. Which means that you get less grain at the equivalent speed when compared to PLUS films giving a slightly cleaner, sharper look. For this week's #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites we asked you to share your shots on our #deltafilms.
@lottiegilliatt I just love Ilford Delta films….This image was taken on Ilford Delta 3200 #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites #deltafilm #Delta3200

We set you the theme of #mediumformat for this week's #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites. There is so much detail in a 120 negative and in the darkroom they can be be printed big without any loss of quality. These are the ones that we chose as our favourites.

A Photographic Love Affair
My love affair for photography was born out of my passion for music. In 1990, when I was 18, my late father took me camera shopping at the local mall because I thought it would be fun to photograph rock stars. He helped me select a beautiful Nikon SLR that I quickly mastered.
Shot on Ilford XP2.
I began shooting some of the biggest bands in the world and some that were yet to be known as they toured through the United States. My film of choice was Ilford XP2. I loved it b...
We all love film and as it's Valentines Day we couldn't think of a better theme for this week's #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites than #lovefilm.
Thank you for sharing your shots with us. There were so many to choose from this week.

The Photography Show 14-17 March
There's not long to go until this years Photography Show at the NEC in Birmingham and it's going to be a great one. (If we do say so ourselves)!
There is going to be a far greater analogue / film presence at the show this year as the organisers have agreed to the inclusion of a dedicated ‘Analogue Spotlight’ area which will include some pods for smaller brands and a spotlight speaker area for those brands to do demos.
Come and see us!
We will be there on stand B93 ...
In late 2019, we invited the global analogue film photography community to take part in our latest survey. This time we focused specifically on darkroom printing.
The survey ran for 1 month and had an incredible 5,439 responses from 87 countries around the world. A huge thank you to everyone who took the time to offer your insights and share the survey for us.
Why darkroom printing?
We have seen sustained and continuous growth in film for a number of years. However, darkroom printing has not yet cap...
