Film Washi “E” is a new emulsion for photographers made from a film stock designed for PCB manufacturing.
This film is akin to orthochromatic emulsions (analog.cafe/r/ilford-ortho…), but instead of lacking sensitivity to red colours, Film Washi “E” isn’t sensitive to greens.
Washi “E” has an ISO sensitivity of just 3, and it has a similar sensitivity to printing paper with a similar process for development.
The first rolls and sheets of this film will be sold at the Bievres International Photo Fair on June 1st and 2nd — presumably, more will be available at the Film Washi website (filmwashi.com) and other retailers.
