With an ISO of 400, it's perfect for both indoor and outdoor shooting, making it a great choice for various lighting conditions.
Image Quality
This high-speed panchromatic film captures a wide range of tones, allowing for good separation of green shades. Its high contrast and red sensitivity make it ideal for shooting in challenging light, ensuring your landscapes and portraits look stunning.
Film Handling
Svema Foto 400 is hand-rolled, which adds a unique touch to each roll. The film is coated on a thin polyester base, so it needs to be loaded and unloaded in subdued light to prevent light leaks. Remember to store it in a dark camera bag before and after use, and consider using a light-tight bag if you're keeping it in the fridge or freezer.
Processing Options
You can process this film at home or send it to a lab. For home development, Leslie Lazenby recommends using Xtol stock for 7 minutes at 68 degrees with gentle agitation. Alternatively, you can check out processing times on the Massive Dev Chart online for more options.
