Ilford ULF 2024 Special Order: Now with the FPP!

It’s that time of year again. For it’s 19th year, Ilford has opened up the ULF Special Order program. If you’re someone that is currently shooting or wants to shoot specialty sheet and roll film formats, you have until June 1st, 2024 to get in those orders. This program includes ultra large format and funky format B&W films in Ilford Delta 100, FP4 Plus, and HP5 Plus.

For an exact list of films available, here’s the official 2024 product list direct from Ilford:

Personally, I’m super excited to see this effort by Ilford to supply this very niche portion of the film community by offering ULF films year after year. If you haven’t participated in the ULF special order program before, it’s very simple. Check the List of 2024 ULF Program Dealers courtesy of Ilford, contact your dealer of choice, and place your order. Later in the year sometime in the late Fall, usually around Thanksgiving, the dealer you placed your order with will contact you and ship out your ULF film. If you’re not sure how much film to order for this, I’d recommend getting an extra box or two since this order window is yearly and there’s often not a way to increase your order after the due date (this year it’s June 1st!).

Now for the really great news. This year for the first time ever, The Film Photography Project is going to be participating in the ULF Special Order! If you’ve shopped at the Film Photography Store before you know what kind of crazy deals they offer and I’m happy to confirm that the same is true for Ilford ULF films! I’m going to be ordering more than my typical “year’s worth” with FPP and I hope you do the same.

Now get out there and shoot some BIG sheets of film! Oh, and hopefully you don’t run out before your ULF film arrives from the FPP Store!
