This Is How I Roll Film Noir 100 - 120 Medium Format Black & White Film

Cinema in black and white. Now with a larger frame to fill.

ISO 100, near-infrared sensitivity, and the kind of tonal character that makes everything look like it was shot with intent, across a medium format negative.

This Is How I Roll Film Noir 100 120 Film is an ISO 100 panchromatic black and white film from the Noir collection, inspired by the visual language of classic noir cinema and hand-rolled into recycled 120 spools. Each roll is individually wrapped in foil, a small but considered detail that reflects the artisan approach behind the range. Coated onto a transparent polyester base that dries completely flat, it delivers the same cinematic character as its 35mm sibling with the added benefit of a larger medium format negative. Near-infrared sensitivity opens up further creative possibilities with the right filter. In stock now and shipping fast from the UK. Standard black and white chemistry.

What Makes This Is How I Roll Film Noir 100 120 Film Habit-Forming

ISO 100 in Medium Format: Slow and Rewarding ISO 100 suits photographers who work with their light rather than around it. In good natural light or a controlled studio environment it delivers fine grain, high detail, and the tonal quality that slower films are known for. In medium format, those same qualities are distributed across a larger negative, producing images with a depth and smoothness that makes the slower pace entirely worth it.

Hand-Rolled and Foil-Wrapped Every roll is hand-rolled by This Is How I Roll Film and individually wrapped in foil before dispatch. In a market where most film arrives off an automated production line, that level of care is worth noting. Your medium format rolls are handled with the same consideration you bring to using them.

Near-Infrared Sensitivity Noir 100 has spectral sensitivity extending into the near-infrared range, comparable to Ilford SFX. Shot unfiltered it behaves as a conventional panchromatic film. Add an R72 filter and the classic infrared look appears: darkened skies, luminous foliage, and tonal rendering that standard panchromatic films don't produce. Across a medium format negative the infrared effect is rendered with more detail and refinement than the 35mm version allows.

Transparent Polyester Base: Flat Negatives, Better Scans The transparent polyester base dries completely flat, making loading into scanning carriers clean and consistent. For home developers who scan their own medium format negatives, flat film is a meaningful practical advantage. The polyester base also offers long-term dimensional stability.

Light Piping: Load in Dim Light The thin polyester base makes Noir 100 susceptible to light piping. Load in dim or subdued light and store in the black canister pot. The backing paper on 120 film offers some protection, but care during loading remains important.

Standard Black and White Processing Compatible with a wide range of standard black and white developers. Developing times are consistent with the 35mm version; use those as a starting point and adjust for your equipment and preferences.

10 Exposures A standard 120 roll gives 10 exposures at 6x7, 12 at 6x6, or 16 at 6x4.5 depending on your camera. Each frame is worth the consideration it deserves.

Best For Noir 100 120 earns its place for landscape, architectural, portrait, and fine art work in good natural light. The near-infrared sensitivity makes it a compelling choice for photographers interested in the infrared aesthetic, and the flat-drying polyester base suits home developers who scan their own film. The larger medium format negative gives every one of the film's qualities more room to express itself. Black and white development for 120 format is available here at Chemical Dependency Lab.

Perfect for: Landscape and architectural photographers, medium format shooters who want cinematic black and white character, photographers curious about near-infrared work, and anyone whose noir dependency has outgrown the 35mm frame.

Noir 100 takes its name from cinema but earns its place through practical quality: hand-rolled and foil-wrapped, flat-drying polyester base, near-infrared sensitivity, standard processing chemistry, and a medium format negative that gives the cinematic character of the Noir collection the space it deserves.
