About Retro 80S
Rollei Retro 80S is a medium-speed panchromatic black and white negative film with a nominal ISO of 80. Its defining characteristic is its extended spectral sensitivity into the near-infrared region, coupled with strong blue sensitivity (orthopanchromatic). This unique sensitivity curve results in very distinct tonal renditions: blue skies can appear exceptionally dark and dramatic, foliage can brighten, and skin tones might have a unique glow. It delivers very fine grain and excellent sharpness, along with high acutance. Retro 80S is known for its strong contrast, which contributes to its dramatic aesthetic. it's an excellent choice for landscape, architectural, and street photography, particularly where a bold, graphic, and classic black and white look with unique tonal separations is desired. It can be used with specific filters (e.g., yellow, orange, or red) to further enhance its characteristic effects.
