Experience the Timeless Aesthetic of Ilford HP5+ Film
The Choice of Renowned Photographers for Capturing the Beauty of Black and White Photography
Ilford HP5+ (ISO 400) is a classic black and white film known for its fine grain, rich tonality, and wide exposure latitude. Trusted by photographers like Sebastião Salgado, Bruce Davidson, and Alex Webb, it's ideal for everything from street to portrait photography.
Popular for its versatility, HP5+ can be pushed to ISO 800 or 1600 for a grittier, high-contrast look—perfect for capturing the raw energy of urban life while maintaining sharpness and tonal depth.
Achieve the true film look with our authentic film grain, customized to match the resolution of your camera.
Unlike scanned film, our emulations take into account how grain can change based on scan resolution.
For example, grain at 16MP resolution will appear different than at 24MP. The grain is a fixed part of each emulation, but can be deactivated. But let's be honest, would your photo still look like it was shot on analog film without it?
RAF seems to be the only preset maker that understands that analog film renders differently in the push process. The grain is also different in a scan/photo at a resolution of 12MP than at 24MP. Thanks RAF! You guys are the best.

The closest thing to real film I've found
As someone who usually shoots with analog cameras, the rising costs have made it necessary for me to mix analog and digital photography. These Lightroom presets are the first ones that truly capture the essence of film. I often can't tell which of my photos are shot on film and which are edited with the presets. Amazing work – they are the closest thing to real film I've found!

Look as if they were made with Tri-X 400
I'm a seasoned veteran in photography. When I started out, there was only analog photography – and I've remained loyal to it to this day. But ever since I started using the Tri-X 400 preset, I almost exclusively reach for the M11 – even though my beloved M6 was my faithful companion for decades.

Simplicity of analog photography in digital
I have tried many presets in the past, but have never been truly satisfied. There were always too many options and I found it overwhelming. For me, the simplicity of analog photography was what made it so special. With the RAF Presets, I feel like I am able to achieve that same simplicity in my digital photography. Importing photos into Lightroom, selecting a preset and everything falls into place. No more struggling to choose between presets, grain, etc. It's just perfect.
