Hp5 is my go-to black and white film. Love the pictures you took.

I like this film it has a nice balance of contrast without it being way to contrasty and not flat at the same time.

My go-to 400, super versatile as you say. If you like sharp visible grain, try developing it in Rodinal diluted 1 to 50 😊
Good vid as always

Thank you. When I start my own developing, I'll definitely keep this in mind!

[@dianeyoung8042]

These are beautiful! Fantastic work!

Thank you!

HP5 is my favorite b&w film stock! I almost always push it 1 or 2 stops for the added grain and contrast

[@DCaldwellPhotography]

I’m definitely going to have to push it a few stops and see what results I get.

If you want grainy pictures while shooting with HP5, just develop it in Rodinal, with stronger actuations, and you're good...

Back in my day ISO 400 was high ISO. LOL
