Lomography Babylon Kino B&W ISO 13 Black and White Film

The announcements of the Lomo Kino series of black and white films continue. Babylon is an ISO 13 film, usually films this slow are almost microfilm-style special films intended for technical use. But Fantome also has beautiful midtones in addition to sharpness and low grain!

This film is at its best when used with fast lenses. Now you can shoot at noon with fast lenses at full aperture. You don't have to be afraid of the harsh light or brightness of midday, with this film you can create stories and evoke a film noir atmosphere even in these conditions.

For precise work, we recommend a light meter (for example, a light meter app for your phone). There is no DX coding on the film can, which means that the film sensitivity must be set manually and it may be that you have to use manual settings due to camera adjustments. Here is also a handy chart for evaluating exposure:

Development can be done with common MV chemicals, Lomography recommends D-96 for neutral image development, Kodak HC-110 for those looking for details and contrast. Ilford Ilfosol 3, on the other hand, brings atmosphere and brings out the midtones. Development instructions can be found in the Massive Dev Chart and on Lomo's own website.
