Ghostline 25 is a slow-speed, orthochromatic black-and-white film known for its high contrast, spectral highlight glow, and deep detail retention. With no remjet layer and a base sensitivity of ISO 25, it delivers a hauntingly sharp, ethereal look ideal for controlled lighting or long daylight exposures. It performs well with standard black-and-white developers, allowing for expressive tonal rendering and unique image characteristics.
