Buying the Right Black-and-White Slide Film

You're a photography buff and anything that you can do to create something new and different is exciting to you. To that end, adding black-and-white 35mm slide film to your arsenal of accessories can let you create vintage-looking images that are evocative, artistic, and imaginative, and there are a few different ways to go about buying film to ensure you get the right kind.

What Does Film Speed Mean?

When you're selecting a roll of black-and-white slide film, you'll notice an ISO number on the box or roll. What does this mean exactly, and how will it affect your images? You may need to decide whether you want fine-grained, detailed images or not as finely grained photos, which also depends on the speed of the film.

  • ISO refers to film speed and generally refers to the film's light sensitivity.
  • With that in mind, the higher the ISO number, the more sensitive it is to light, and the lower the ISO, the less sensitive it is. When you're shooting active photography, such as sports, active kids, or something where there is action, a higher ISO is a better choice. High ISO is also good for low-light situations.
  • For standard shooting in daylight or with studio lighting, a lower ISO works fine for these purposes.

Which Brands Make 135 Slide Film?

Browsing this type of film means that you'll notice a few brands that create this type of film for specific camera types and models. You can buy one roll of film, or when you know you'll be using this type of film frequently, you can purchase it in bulk.

  • Kodak is a prominent name in the photography industry, and it creates this type of 35mm/135 film.
  • Select film from the FOMA brand to complement compatible equipment by this brand.
  • Another option is to purchase positive film from ILFORD.

How Do You Use This Film?

You may wonder whether the camera you have will take this film or you might have to start thinking about purchasing a camera that does, so there are a few tips that can help you to use this type of reverse color film.

  • You don't necessarily need to match the brand of film to the brand of the camera.
  • You can use 35mm film with any camera format that accepts 35mm film.
  • You may not be able to develop the film yourself, which means that you might have to have a professional develop it for you at a studio to achieve your desired results.
