Rollei Blackbird 135-36 , ISO 25/100

Rollei Blackbird is part of the Rollei Creative Edition portfolio of films that are available as single films or in Single Use Camera form.

This film is just fantastic if you are like me and want the maximum 'oomph' from your monochrome images. By this I mean high contrast, fine grain and maximum sharpness. These criteria list is the 'Holy Trinity' of black and white film.

The way we achieve it to rate the film at 25 ISO and develop with a High Contrast Developer like Rollei RHS. You will not believe the images you get. Rate at ISO 100 and develop in normal film developer like Ilfosol and you'll get results similar to FP4.
Specification of the film is ISO 25/15° / ISO 100/21°
