How to Get the Best Results with Ilford HP5

Film emulation filters replicate the unique color response of specific analog film stocks. Ilford HP5 captures the look photographers spend considerable time and money achieving with real film, and applies it to any digital photo instantly.

Matching the look: For the most authentic result, start with a well-exposed photo shot in natural light. Film stocks were designed for specific lighting conditions, so the emulation is most convincing when the base exposure matches what the original film would have captured.
