Description
Description
Ilford HP5 Plus 400 is the film that's been loaded into more cameras than almost any other black and white stock. Fast enough for low light, pushable to 3200, and dripping with character at every speed. It's not trying to be clean — it's trying to be real.
We reverse-engineered real HP5 Plus 400 scan data and rebuilt it for Lightroom — delivering the authentic stock look through a custom camera profile built from the ground up, not slider guesswork.

Built from Film
Every profile is built from real film stock data — not guesswork, not Instagram filters. We analyse the colour science of each emulsion and translate it into precise camera profiles that work at the RAW level, before your edit even begins. The result is colour that behaves like film, not a filter sitting on top.
Built by Colorists. Backed by Science.
NOT JUST PRESETS. A BETTER WAY TO EDIT.
Built from real film science. Designed for photographers who care about colour.
Colour that starts at the RAW level.
Our camera profiles change how Lightroom interprets your photo before any sliders move. More accurate film colour from the foundation up.
Skin tones that actually look right.
Skin stays natural while skies, foliage, and shadows shift into filmic hues. No green casts. No magenta skin.
Pay once. Yours forever.
No subscriptions. Every new film stock added to your bundle is included automatically. Film Suite included free with every order.
