A lot of photo enthusiasts really like the Ilford stuff. However, I&#8217;m not as enamored with it as other. Don&#8217;t get me wrong. It&#8217;s still a very good film, but I&#8217;m a little let down by it. I think it has a very grainy look even with it being a mainstream film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For an ISO 125 film, I though the FP4+ would have a bit less grain than what I got. I think I&#8217;m missing something. Did I meter correctly? Did I mess up something with developing? Did I scan it with bad settings? I think I should be getting better results than these. I&#8217;ll have to try a few different adjustments as I go along<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"471\"
