Comments about Ilford HP5 Plus 5x7" 25 Sheets Black & White Print Film (ISO-400):
In my photo course, I start by having students discover that they can make good images with almost no technology. They shoot with a pinhole camera on 5x7 film, which is a great size to contact print. It's big enough to yield a nice image scale, but doesn't require a huge camera as would 8x10, and fits my limited supply budget. HP5 is fast enough to keep the exposure time reasonable, and it's pretty forgiving in latitude (which is very helpful for their manually estimated and timed exposures). The size also fits our film developing tanks, and the emulsion is tough enough that my students don't have to be super careful to avoid scratching.
