The New Generation SHD Series represents a pinnacle in black-and-white photographic film technology, specifically engineered for those who demand exceptional precision and artistic depth. Whether you are utilizing the SHD400 for versatility or the SHD100 for medium-speed excellence, these films offer a panchromatic response and an expansive exposure latitude that ensures a wide range of tones from deep blacks to brilliant whites.
Designed to withstand the rigors of professional environments, our latest formulation features advanced physical properties that provide superior resistance against blocking and scratches. By integrating a novel silver halide grain emulsion, the SHD series maintains extraordinary clarity and fine grain structures, making it the ideal choice for high-magnification enlargements in portraiture, advertising, and landscape photography.

Professional guidance on push processing and agitation speed adjustments.
| Feature | Standard B&W Film | New Generation SHD |
|---|---|---|
| Image Clarity | Moderate Grain | Ultra-Fine Grain |
| Climate Resistance | Low Stability | High Temp/Humidity Stable |
| Enlargement Potential | Standard | High-Magnification Ready |
| Exposure Latitude | Narrow | Wide/Flexible |
| Scratch Resistance | Basic | Enhanced Protective Coating |
Store the film at temperatures ≤21°C and relative humidity ≤65%. Keep it away from radiation and harmful gases such as ammonia or hydrogen sulfide to prevent chemical degradation.
Contrast can be effectively managed through agitation speed. Increasing the speed of agitation during the development process will result in higher contrast in the final image.
To prevent condensation from forming on the film surface, allow the film to acclimate to room temperature for 1 to 2 hours before opening the packaging.
Yes, push processing is supported. For best results, extend the development time when using D-76 developer at a constant temperature of 20°C.
Processing must be done in complete darkness. Be aware that residual light from fluorescent lamps can cause fogging; ensure an absolute light-tight environment.
Under the recommended storage conditions (cool, dry, and radiation-free), the New Generation SHD series films have a shelf life of 18 months.
