Film Ferrania P30 Black and White 35mm x 36 exp film ISO 80
Description
LIMITED AVAILABILITY
The Italian masters of the mid-20th century used P30 cinema stock in some of the world’s most beloved movies. It became so popular that a version was created for still photography as well. The Modern Ferrania team has recreated the original formula for the modern day.
Ferrania P30 is newly manufactured film - not simply rebranded stock. It is proudly made in our rebuilt factory on the grounds of the original company, in Cairo Montenotte, Italy.
Each roll features a very high silver content to create a natively high-contrast film with almost no visible grain. Shadows are deep and rich. Highlights are punchy and sharp.
