RETRO 80 Orthochromatic Black & White Film is a medium-speed ISO 80 emulsion with a unique spectral sensitivity: as an orthochromatic film, it does not register red tones correctly. This results in a very characteristic rendering — skin tones and lips appear darker, skies take on a dramatic mood, and greens are rendered vividly. The outcome is an unmistakable vintage aesthetic, reminiscent of early 20th-century photography.
Its fine grain and sharpness make it suitable for both portraiture and landscapes, as well as architecture and artistic work where a nostalgic or experimental look is desired. The limited red sensitivity also enhances tonal contrast and creates striking shadows, setting it apart from modern panchromatic emulsions.
Built on a durable polyester base, RETRO 80 is archival-safe and easy to handle in the darkroom. With a workable exposure latitude and compatibility with standard B&W developers, it is a versatile option for those who want to explore the unique world of orthographic rendering.
