This is the first time I've used Delta 100. It seems like the emulsion is much more fragile than FP4, but it's certainly sharper. Highlights have a tendency to blow-out in high-contrast situations, but it responds really sensitively to development adjustments so it's not such a big deal. Definitely harder to use than FP4, but the difference in sharpness, grain, and graceful contrast makes it worth it.

Comments about Ilford Delta-100 Professional 4x5" 100 Sheets Black & White Negative (Print) Film (ISO-100):
I shoot landscapes and nature. I find this film is good at rendering shadows and retaining highlights. It under normal processing the grain is very fine.
under push/pull processing at 2 stops variation I notice grain starts to build up. Also, I notice it scratches easily. I tray process, so I am sure that is part of the reason; however I do notice more scratches in this film compared to their yellow box competitor.

Comments about Ilford Delta-100 Professional 4x5" 100 Sheets Black & White Negative (Print) Film (ISO-100):
Easy to work with and develop. The nature of the work I am doing currently is such that careful handling of the negative is not important as I am distressing the film post. I have used it for more traditional work and the film seems very durable. Great tonality, easy to print with.

Comments about Ilford Delta-100 Professional 4x5" 100 Sheets Black & White Negative (Print) Film (ISO-100):
I shoot a healthy mix of landscape, architecture and fashion in 4x5 and 8x10. I like the tonal range and 3-D look this film generates for contact prints and its compatibility with a wide range of developers. My favorite combo is Ilford DeltaPro 100 with D-76 1:1 and H-110 1:100. I also like the generally forgiving nature and ability to push/pull.

I use this film in my 4x5 class and I haven't had any issues with it yet. The contrast is superb, it picks up a lot of detail, and it is fairly forgiving. It makes printing easier. It's also durable.

I have never loved a film as much as I love this one. Beautiful tonal scale, great for expansion and contraction. I use it for 4x5, 120, and 35mm.

I am a college student and this is my first time using 4x5 film. I am pleasantly surprised to find how easy it is to use. I have not found anything that I would change.

this is a truly beautiful film. the sheer detail and range in value is great and makes darkroom printing much easier and more controlable. due to its low iso, it does require some very long exposures so cable releases are key! I will continue to buy this product as it delivers exactly what i need

For fine prints, equal to Oriental. I see little difference except that Oriental seems to accept toning somewhat better.
Ilford appears t be m ore consistent.
Nothing scientific to base this on, strictly pinion. Both excellent products.
