Ilford FP4 Plus 125 - 35mm Black & White Film

The quiet professional. Some habits don't need to shout. FP4 Plus has been earning its place in camera bags for decades, and it's not about to start explaining itself now. A fine grain, medium speed black and white film rated at ISO 125, it's the kind of film that serious photographers reach for when they want the process to disappear and the image to speak for itself. Developed in standard black and white chemistry, FP4 Plus has been a cornerstone of Ilford's line-up for generations — and the Plus generation improved on the original with finer grain and shorter processing times without asking anything extra of you.
