This is an Online Exhibition of Black and White Photography.

Black and White Film.

"There are a number of black and white (b&w) films available for 35mm film cameras and medium format film cameras that can still be found in film photography stores. While there are also a number of special films that require unique processing, it would be best to work with the basic black and white film types and learn how the film works before using these special films. The two major brands of black and white films are Kodak and Ilford. Unfortunately, the best advice for any beginner using black and white film, like color film or slide film, would be to try a variety of brands and subtypes within those brands to find the right film for you."
