Atouts
+ A unique pictorial, textured look
+ Genuine Japanese washi paper material
+ A one-of-a-kind photographic experience
Limites
− ISO 25 — bright light needed
− A very experimental result
− No DX coding
− Fragile base
Washi W is probably the most experimental film in the world — traditional, hand-made Japanese washi paper made light-sensitive and packaged into a 35mm cartridge. The result is a pictorial look close to engraving. A film for artists, not for photographers seeking a classic look.
