The H, the P, the 5, the Plus

As said in the last post, it was time for a new film, the HP5 Plus from Ilford. Carefully exposed with my trusty Canon 3000N, crazily shot with a 65mm Super Rotator from Hartblei. As HP5 Plus has finer grain, I just doubled the amount of Vitamin C, the rest of the Delta Recipe remained the same.

Let the pictures speak for themselves:

As you can see, the film behaves beautiful in caffenol, the tonal range is quite impressive, the negatives scan easily. Together with the Hartblei Tilt Shift it’s a joy to ban architectural, abstract or even normal subjects on film.

This film is available quite cheap if just shortly expired and then sells for about 2 EURO, so this is a really capable film if exposed carefully.

I already have the next roll loaded and will try how it behaves if exposed at ISO 800.
