Lomography Monochrome Duet B&W Starter 35mm

The contrast on this black and white stock is gorgeous—crisp highlights and deep shadows straight out of the scanner. Two rolls in the starter kit is just enough to get a feel for the look before committing to a bulk pack.

The two rolls in this kit are a fantastic way to explore black and white without overcommitting. I was surprised by how much detail the film captured in bright sunlight, and the grain has a really classic feel.

Shot my first roll through a borrowed SLR and the contrast on these negatives is lovely — deep blacks without losing detail in the shadows. Two rolls got me through a weekend trip with a few frames to spare, which is exactly what I wanted for a starter kit.
