Some images from the first roll of JCH Street Pan

JCH Street Pan is mainly used for street photography. This film has a wonderful contrast and produces pretty sharp details. It is known to be coming from surveillance film stock. Back in India, I got this film through a friend from Australia but never got a chance to use it there. After coming to London, this was the first 35 mm film that I tried. Initially, I was a bit sceptical from the online reviews, but now I am loving the results. I tried developing the first roll of this film with Mr. Bellini's Hydrofen developer (recipe in the bottom) which is the improved version of Studional or Rodinal S developer. The grain is pretty fine and the film doesn't curl!  Here are some of the images taken at Royal Albert Hall during Imperial College's 2019 graduation ceremony.  

Summary: I love it! :-)
