Specification

BaseFilm base The clear, flexible support that carries the emulsion. Read more in the glossary ›
Acetate
EmulsionEmulsion The light-sensitive layer of a film: tiny crystals of silver halide held in gelatin. Read more in the glossary ›

Spectral sensitivitySpectral sensitivity Which colours of light a film responds to, and how strongly. Read more in the glossary ›
Panchromatic — what this means

Sensitive to the whole visible spectrum, so colours turn into greys roughly the way the eye weighs them. This is what almost every general-purpose black and white film is. It has to be loaded and developed in complete darkness — no safelight is safe for it.

Grain (RMS)Grain The visible, sand-like texture in a photograph that comes from the clumps of silver or dye that form the image. Read more in the glossary ›

Resolving power line pairs / mm

Maximum densityDensity How much light a negative, transparency or print blocks. Read more in the glossary ›

Suggest a time or report a mistake.

Know a time for Pan 400 that is missing here, or spotted one that is wrong? Tell us, with the source, and a curator will check it.

  • Sources only. We publish a time only when it has been read off a primary source: the maker’s datasheet or chart. A link to it is what lets us check yours.
  • Nothing goes up by itself. Every report is read by a person before anything on the page changes.
  • No account needed. Your name and email are optional, and only to reply to you.
What would you like to send?

A datasheet, the maker’s chart or technical publication. Forums and blogs can’t be checked the same way.
