Elizabeth M. ★★★★★

The grain on this 120 roll is beautifully classic—sharp but with that organic retro character I wanted. It handled mixed daylight and shadow really well at box speed, and the synthetic emulsion makes it forgiving for casual developing. Definitely my new go-to for medium format street shots.

Riley F. ★★★★★

I’ve been shooting this in medium format for street portraits, and the grain structure is incredibly fine for a 400-speed film—way more detail than I expected. The contrast is punchy without blowing out highlights, which gives a classic look. Definitely grabbing another brick for my next trip.

Emma ★★★★★

Shot a roll at box speed in 120 and the grain is beautifully tight for a 400-speed film, even with strong contrast scenes. The synthetic emulsion handles highlights without blocking up, which is exactly what I wanted on a sunny day. Definitely my new go-to for medium format street work.
