Profile notes

Kentmere Pan 200 is produced at HARMAN Technology's Mobberley facility and occupies a mid-speed position in the Kentmere line. Rated ISO 200/24°, it features a 'low-density base' contributing to a lower Dmin value, which enables higher contrast while retaining shadow detail and keeping grain well-controlled in darker regions. The film can be pulled to EI 100 or pushed to EI 400 with adjusted development. No reciprocity correction is needed for exposures from 1/10,000 sec to 1 second; beyond 1 second, apply the formula Ta = Tm^1.26. Processes in all standard B&W developers. Available in 35mm, 120, and 100ft bulk lengths.
