Ilford FP4 Plus – 4×5 Sheet Film

Ilford FP4 Plus Sheet Film is a classic medium-speed black and white film rated at ISO 125. Renowned for its reliability and consistent performance, FP4+ has long been a staple in both professional and student workflows. It offers excellent exposure flexibility, forgiving latitude, and a fine traditional grain structure that adds a subtle, pleasing texture—ideal for photographers who appreciate the character of older-style emulsions.

With its healthy tolerance for mild overexposure (often shot at ISO 100 for richer shadow detail), FP4+ is suitable for a wide range of lighting conditions when high speed is not essential. It responds well to most mainstream developers, producing rich tonal range and smooth gradation.

At Ag Photolab, FP4+ is developed using Tetenal Neotenal—a versatile fine-grain developer that delivers sharp, consistent results with full emulsion speed. For photographers looking to build a solid benchmark in their black and white work, FP4+ is a perfect starting point and an enduring favourite. [Order your black and white film processing here.]
