Looking for an inexpensive,
but quality 120 B&W film?
The Arista Edu Ultra 400 is under $5 (as low as $4.25 with a Google search)
and has relatively fine grain with a mild contrast, wide exposure latitude, and very pleasant tones.
We shot the Arista film with a Pentax 67 and an old Mamiya 6. When metering we erred on overexposure since like most B&W film, including this film, has great exposure latitude and always looks better when it’s not underexposed. The B&W film was developed in our lab and scanned using our Super Scan option.
Below are examples of the images with 200% closeups to show the detail & grain. Click to enlarge photos
