Rollei ortho film is an orthochromatic sensitised photographic material coated onto a clear and stable 100% polyester base. Depending on the type of processing, this film offers the choice of different applications: Display film for backlighting + normal viewing on light boxes.

Rollei Ortho 25 is a technical, orthochromatic black and white photographic film with a nominal sensitivity of ISO 25/15°. Rollei ORTHO 25 is characterised by a high sensitivity reserve of up to two f-stops, depending upon development. The document emulsion offers fantastic grain images with high sharpness. Rollei ORTHO 25 is ideal for technical and scientific applications and as a halftone film for pictorial photography. The crystal-clear RC base opens up the possibility of using the film as a B&W slide film. 

Technical and scientific applications:

  • Reproductions
  • Reproduction of X-ray images
  • Astrophotography
  • Black and white slides and blue slides
  • Graphic distancing


For this application, in particular, we recommend Rollei High Contrast (RHC) developer (1 + 5, 5 - 6 min.). Halftone film for pictorial photography: Rollei Ortho 25 in combination with Rollei Supergrain (RSG) exceptional grain contrast developer offers the highest standards of sharpness and excellent grain. Ortho 25 has also developed a legendary reputation when used in combination with Rollei Low Contrast developer. The results are reminiscent of qualities obtained by a Technical Pan film. This particular developer softens the comparatively steep gradation. Extreme fine grain and high sharpness, coupled with detailed grey tones, can be achieved in this way.

Joseph ★★★★★

I've shot a lot of ortho films over the years, but this one on the 100% polyester base lies completely flat in the holder every single time. The clear base also makes it a dream for reversal processing, which I wasn't expecting to work this smoothly.

Madison ★★★★★

The polyester base is rock-solid and lies perfectly flat in the holder, which made loading these sheets a breeze. Tonality on the highlights is beautifully soft, and the ortho sensitivity is forgiving enough that I didn't need a safelight as dark as I feared.

James ★★★★★

The orthochromatic sensitivity is a game-changer for me—it renders reds as deep blacks, giving my portraits that classic, moody look I’ve been chasing. The 25 sheets loaded flat into my holders without any curl, and the polyester base feels sturdy enough for my rougher handling in the darkroom.
