ISO 80 N&B ultra-fine intermediate
~12–15 €
The CatLABS X Film 80 Mk II is the second, reformulated version of the X Film 80, with a characteristic curve slightly softened in the highlights for a more versatile look. Ultra-fine grain, very high acutance, slightly less extreme contrast than the Mk I.
Atouts
+ Maximum acutance — an improved version of the X Film 80
+ Slightly softer contrast than the Mk I — more versatile
+ Available in 35mm and 120
Limites
− ISO 80 — sufficient light needed
− Limited availability in France
CatLABS launched the Mk II following community feedback on the original X Film 80 — some photographers found its contrast too high for portraits. The Mk II reformulation keeps the exceptional acutance while softening the highlight curve, making the film more versatile.
