Master your Low ISO Monochromes

This film has a slow speed of ISO 13, so we recommend using a camera and lens with manual controls for better control over your exposures. You should be able to manually adjust the shutter speed of your camera and aperture of your lens. Using a fast lens (maximum aperture of at least f/1.4 - f/2.8), is also recommended. This evocative emulsion can be developed both in the lab or at home with the standard black and white process and renders stunning effects with a variety of different developers. Whether you are a dab hand in the darkroom or looking to boost your development skills, we are here to help and have created a bespoke Babylon Kino B&W Film Guide with everything you need to know including tips, tricks, filters and a development chart.
