CineStill BWXX Double-X 120 Film

Description

CineStill BWXX Double-X 120 Film

CineStill BWXX Double-X 120 is a black and white negative film. Made from original Kodak motion picture film stock. You get a high speed, classic black and white film emulsion, with an ISO of 250 under daylight and 200 under tungsten lighting.

Double-X is a classic black and white film stock left relatively unchanged since it’s release in 1959 for still and motion picture use.

As this is a movie film, CineStill recommends you develop it in Kodak D-96 developer. However, it is compatible with Kodak D-76 and HC-110 developers. As well as most other brands of black and white film developers. Use Eastman Double-X (5222) as the name of the film when you look up development times.

The main aim of CineStill is to provide still photographers with access to the same emulsion as cinematographers. Simply put, they hack motion picture cinema film stock. As a result, you can shoot it and process it like a normal 120 black and white negative film.
