NEOPAN 100 ACROS II 120

ACROS II in 120 format combines the film's legendary sharpness and supernatural reciprocity behavior with the tonality and resolution of medium format, creating what may be the ultimate black-and-white tool for the deliberate landscape photographer. The grain, already invisible at 35mm, becomes a theoretical concept rather than a visible phenomenon — you will encounter the limits of your lenses, your technique, and your patience long before you find the limits of this film on a 6×7 negative. The reciprocity magic — 120 seconds with zero compensation — is even more valuable on medium format, where the slower pace of composition and exposure already encourages a more contemplative approach to image-making. Set up your tripod, compose on the ground glass, meter once, and let ACROS II handle the rest, whether your exposure is 1/60th or two full minutes. Japanese landscape photographers, who know a thing or two about rendering natural beauty on film, have embraced ACROS II as their standard medium format black-and-white stock for good reason. We recommend it for anyone who shoots landscapes on medium format, for long-exposure work where reciprocity compensation would otherwise be a significant technical burden, and for photographers who want the very best image quality their medium format system is capable of producing. This is a reference-grade film: it sets the standard by which others are judged.
