About this film
CineStill BwXX Double-X 135/36 is black-and-white film rated at ISO 250 in 135 format with 36 exposures.
Image character
Classic panchromatic cinema tonality with expressive grain, deep blacks and flexible midtones.
Best uses
Documentary, street, portrait and atmospheric work with an old-cinema character.
Practical advice
Use EI 250 in daylight and EI 200 under tungsten as a starting point. It works in standard B&W developers; D-96 gives a particularly cinematic grain-to-contrast balance.
Processing: standard B&W processing. I recommend labelling the actual EI and any push/pull or scanning requests before handing the film to a lab.
