The Kentmere Pan 100 is a black and white film. The film is made in the UK. It was introduced as the Kentmere 100 without the addition of “Pan”.
The Kentmere Pan 100 delivers timeless black and white images with a classic look. The fine grain ensures smooth and detailed reproduction, while the neutral contrast enables balanced tonal gradation. The film is suitable for a variety of subjects, from portraits and landscapes to architecture and street photography.
Like the Kentmere Pan 400, this film is manufactured by HARMAN technology and follows the same high quality standards as ILFORD PHOTO films and papers. Kentmere Pan 100 is panchromatically sensitized and can be processed in a variety of developers using spiral and deep tanks and automatic processors.
Versatile application possibilities
The Kentmere Pan 100 is an excellent choice for photographers who value fine detail and a classic black and white aesthetic. The film is particularly suitable for shooting in daylight or controlled lighting conditions, where the low sensitivity of 100 ISO can be optimally used. Due to its high quality and affordable price, it is also attractive for beginners and price-conscious photographers.
Development of the black and white film
The Pan 100 only reveals its full splendor through the alchemical transformation of film development. Immerse yourself in the world of black and white development, which you can either entrust to a professional photo laboratory or do yourself with the right equipment. Every development bath and every chemical gives your images a unique character and lets them shine in a new light.

Are you missing specific development times for your film-developer combination? Be inspired by similar films or try your own experiments. After the development process, you hold the film strips with your photographic treasures in your hands. Decide for yourself whether you want to hold them in your hands as prints or scan them for digital processing. In addition to developing, most photo labs also offer prints in various formats.
Digitizing your negatives opens up new possibilities for you. Use special film scanners or document scanners to transfer your images into the digital world. You can then edit, archive or print them as you wish.
