Episode 211 - The 50/50 Draw

It's still 2025, and it's still Leica's 100th birthday. And as part of the global celebration, they recently released their first Leica-branded film, Monopan 50. And the Internet was abuzz with speculation about what the film was under the cover. Well, all signs point to Adox HR-50, which makes sense. HR-50 is sharp, fine-grained, and high-resolution. That got us thinking: why not discuss other ASA-50 films? This includes Ilford Pan F+, Adox HR-50, Ferrania ORTO, Velvia 50, and even a mention of Efke 50! We also discuss overexposure and pulling film in development, mainly because there are more 100-speed films out there these days that you can shoot at ASA 50!
