Unlock a hidden world of dramatic, infrared-like imagery with Ilford SFX 200 in professional 120 medium format. While it behaves like a standard, high-quality black-and-white film under normal conditions, SFX features an extended red sensitivity (up to 740nm). When paired with a deep red filter, it transforms ordinary landscapes into surreal, high-contrast masterpieces.

The Highlights

  • The Pseudo-Infrared Effect: When you mount a deep red filter (like a B+W 091 or Hoya R72) onto your lens, SFX cuts out the rest of the light spectrum to reveal the "Wood Effect." Green foliage and trees glow a brilliant, snow-white, while blue skies turn an intense, deep, ink-black.

  • Crisp, Punchy Contrast: Even without a filter, SFX 200 delivers a unique tonal profile compared to standard monochrome stocks. It naturally provides punchier contrast, deep blacks, and clean, brilliant highlights that make images jump off the negative.

  • Medium Format Glory: On 120 film, the deep black skies and glowing white leaves of SFX are resolved with stunning resolution, immense depth, and a beautifully smooth, fine-grain texture.

  • Easy Handling: Unlike true, finicky infrared films of the past, SFX 200 does not need to be loaded in total darkness. It handles exactly like normal black-and-white film and can be developed in any standard monochrome chemistry.
