Whilst I have an overwhelming love of shooting colour content, I still have a love for black and white imaging. I think its that deep contrast of black and white film that works for me plus the grain of course. Shooting this way can often give an image a timeless feel to it if you have the right content.
In the early days, I use to shoot HP5 and FP4 but a couple of years ago I discovered Kodak double X. Such an ace stock. It has the subtleties in tone scale that you’ve come to expect from Kodak. This is a general purpose black & white negative film original used by the motion picture industry and has an excellent latitude and low grain, ideal for documentary work. Try it!
