      Comments about Ilford Delta-100 Professional 135-24 Black & White Print Film (ISO-100):

      I grab this film when I want artistic combination of contrast and clarity. Full range of gray tonal values with black blacks and white whites. Images glow, infused with emotion. I shoot a lot in the Sierras and Yosemite. This film captures dappled sunlight in the giant sequoia groves in high contrast lighting situations with good detail in the shadows and highlights. It is also an excellent choice for portraits and people shots when the subject is relatively stationary. If you have a tripod, this film works great rated at ASA 50.

          As with all slow speed film you need to make sure there is enough light to adequately shoot. But when you find the perfect light (or create it) this film creates awesome pieces.

              This film lives up to the hype. Great tone, blacks are rich and deep and images are very sharp, grain free. It makes using film a joy once again. I have yet to capture this look digitally.

                    This film is great. I have used it many times before and have never had a problem with it. I'm a student and have tried quite a few different brands (whatever I can get my hands on usually) and this one is the winner! I have tried other brands that were not so accurate, I would have to adjust the way I would shoot and develop to get anything decent but with Ilford Delta-100 I have never had to do that. Great film.

                      Comments about Ilford Delta-100 Professional 135-24 Black & White Print Film (ISO-100):

                      I'm primarily a film photographer, and have used Ilford products after switching from Kodak about 6 years ago. (It was easier to find).

                      This film has very nice tone blacks in it. Shadows and foliage look almost like cutouts. It can get blown out in mid-day sky/objects, leaving a greyish low contrast tone. On the whole I'm very happy with the lack of grain and high contrast, especially with off-hour shooting. I've been using it primarily with my old Contessa and it's sharp Tessar lens (no filters). The combination of the two make it so far my favorite film/camera combo.

                      I'm still testing it's abilty to capture extended night shots, which it isn't as successful with as some of the old Kodak films I used to use like TMAX and Tri-X.

                              Comments about Ilford Delta-100 Professional 135-24 Black & White Print Film (ISO-100):

                              This film can be developed in B&W chemicals rather than color chemicals. It's very sharp and prints grain-less 8x10s. Not as sharp as Ilford's 50, but it does the trick. This film is great and just about all I use for day shooting.

                                This film has a very fine, and almost un-noticable grain. It produces images that have nice tonality, although there does seem to be a good deal of contrast between the highlights and shadows.
                                The images have a very "artistic" feel to them, and this seems like a nice film for sun-lit portraits.

                                  I really like the contrast & sharpness (developed in FG7 1:15). Good tonal range & crisp images.

                                    I used this film for landscape, portrait, street shots. I also shot a roll pulled one stop, and the results were excellent. Fine grain, great contrast. You can't go wrong with Delta 100.

                                    I am a Fine Arts major with a concentration in Photography and i would use no other 100 speed film besides ilford. ilford is not only the best film but it allows me to enlarge pictures larger than 8x10 and it stays sharp and clear and it doesnt become foggy and fuzzy. Also if you like contrast, it maintains the contrast in the negative even if you run a little long developing in the dark room.buy none other than ilford.
