Great film, they each have their uses and I do come back to this one quite a bit. You can't go wrong with Delta 400. Clean and crisp

A solid and reliable fine grain 400. My go-to for general black and white work. Dries flat and forgiving in the dev process.

5/5 would buy again

It's a high-speed fine-grain panchromatic film, exactly as advertised. I shot two rolls: one at sunny f/16, the other using aperture priority, and they both came out just as good, leading me to believe it has good exposure latitude. It's cheaper than T-Max 400, and personally I think it looks better. No-brainer.

I love this one also

I have been using Ilford Delta 400 35 mm film for many years. I buy it in 100 foot rolls and reload cassettes. I have found the blacks are deep and the whites are white. It is forgiving, in that if you don't hit the exact temperature the film is forgiving. I have also found it has very dine grain.

Great Versatile Battery

For black & white film enthusiasts and artists, Ilford sets the standard for great film products. This Delta 400 is a versatile medium speed film that can be pushed and pulled in ISO speed. It has wide latitude and a great look. You can't really replicate it with digital imaging unless you have a PhD in PhotoShop or are willing to hire a very expensive expert. Just shoot film for a few dollars and hand develop the film yourself. Scan it and you've got a look that stands out from the Sony/Canon/Nikon images.

Always a winner

I have been using Ilford film for 25 years. They never disappoint, and the Delta 400 is one of the best. Beautiful tones and excellent sharpness. It can be used in an situation in any 35mm camera. Worth the extra cost over other film options.

A great film

If you like tabular grain films, this is a great film. Excellent results in DD-X and Arista Dev. Very good results in Xtol, but give it time. Great latitude, great shadow detail, be careful about burning out highlights. One of the most economical tabular grain films available.

This is not a package of 100 rolls. It is one 100 roll of film. You would use this to fill your own empty 35mm cassettes in a darkroom. http://bhpho.to/1mfsYYH
