Ilford HP5 Plus 400 4x5 sheet film

Ilford HP5 Plus 400 is a black-and-white negative film supplied as 100 sheets in the 4x5 large-format size. It is intended for photographers who work with sheet-film holders or view cameras and want a versatile, fast emulsion for general and available-light shooting. The ISO 400 speed suits both studio and location work.

ISO 400 with push capability to EI 3200

The single specification that decides suitability is the box speed of ISO 400 combined with the ability to rate the film at EI 3200/36 when developed in developers such as Ilford Ilfotec HC or Ilford Microphen. This latitude lets the same emulsion cover bright daylight and very low-light scenes without changing stock.

100-sheet box covers extensive sessions

One box provides 100 exposures, giving ample headroom for extended projects, workshop use or multiple shooting days before reordering. The film handles high-contrast scenes and fine-detail subjects with strong edge contrast and full tonal range, but it is not suited for photographers who require colour imagery or need a slower-speed emulsion for extremely fine grain at low ISO.

Questions about this item

What does the ISO 400 rating mean when I load this film into a large-format holder?

ISO 400 means the film is rated for standard daylight exposure at that sensitivity; you set your meter to 400 and develop normally for typical lighting.

Can I push this film beyond ISO 400, and what developers allow it?

Yes, with developers such as ILFORD ILFOTEC HC or ILFORD MICROPHEN you can extend development and shoot at exposure indices up to EI 3200/36.

Will these sheets fit a standard 4x5 film holder?

The product is supplied as 4x5 inch sheets, which are the standard size for 4x5 film holders and changing systems.
