A modern classic — now with DX codes!

 

CineStill BwXX 35mm is a classic, panchromatic B&W negative film for both outdoor and studio use. It has a variable base sensitivity of ISO 250 under daylight (5500K) and ISO 200 under tungsten lighting (3200K), and can be rated up to EI 1600 with the appropriate processing compensation (push-processing). 

Ideal for low light situations, this film delivers rich blacks, a broad tonal range, high sharpness, and a fine grain structure. It is an excellent choice for those looking for a classic, cinematic B&W film stock. 

Some of the iconic movies filmed on this classic B&W motion picture film emulsion include:

Oppenheimer (2023), Malcolm & Marie (2021), The Lighthouse (2019), Frantz (2016), Aferim! (2015), American Horror Story (2011-2017), I'm Not There (2007), Casino Royale (2006), Cinderella Man (2005), Kill Bill: Vol. 1 (2003), Memento (2000), Schindler's List (1993), Kafka (1991), Stranger Than Paradise (1984), Raging Bull (1980), Manhattan (1979), and many many more.

Recommended development: CineStill D96 B&W Motion Picture Developer or CineStill Df96 "Developer&Fix" B&W Monobath, but is compatible with almost all other B&W film developers. For more detail, reference the CineStill BwXX Developing Times Chart.

David O. ★★★★★

Shot a roll of this over a cloudy weekend and the tonality in the shadows genuinely surprised me. The DX coding means my point-and-shoot reads it automatically, which is one less thing to fumble with. Grain is tight enough that I didn't need to baby it in post.

Henry ★★★★★

Loaded this in my studio setup and the tonality in the shadows is gorgeous, way smoother than the cheaper stocks I've used. The DX coding actually matters too, my camera reads the ISO automatically now instead of me guessing. First roll came back with barely any grain at 250, already ordered three m

Grace ★★★★★

Shot a roll of this outdoors at ISO 250 and the tonality in the shadows really surprised me, nice deep blacks without going muddy. Grain is present but tight enough that it still scans clean. Just wish it came in a bulk roll option.
