Analogue Wonderbox is the ultimate film club for retro photographers

If you use film cameras, and like to experiment with unusual rolls of 35mm film, then the Analogue Wonderbox is for you. Every two months you get a box full of six different film emulsions for you to try out – and to explore different retro photography effects and styles.

The brainchild of film photography specialists Analogue Wonderland, the Wonderbox is a film club with a difference. You subscribe, and then every two months you get six different rolls of film through the post; Analogue Wonderland boasts having over 200 different films in stock.

"Every week we get questions from folk getting into film photography - either for the first time or returning after a couple of decades in the digital world - asking for film recommendations and expressing amazement with the range available," says Paul McKay of Analogue Wonderland.

"By curating a small selection of films to arrive at homes around the world each month - and releasing weekly content with top tips for those films - photographers will quickly get to grips with some of the the creative differences between B&W and colour; negative and slide; infrared and redscale; Kodak and Fujifilm; and so much more. We will also run a rolling monthly competition for subscribers to share back some of their favorite shots." 

Each box is meant to be a surprise package, but (spoiler alert) the first box which is currently shipping to early adopters includes:

● Dubblefilm Bubblegum 

● Bergger Pancro 400 

● Ilford Pan F 

● Lomo Metropolis 

● Rollei 400S 

● Kodak Ultramax 

● A special Cyanotype kit from Little Vintage Photography 

● A flyer for a free developed roll with Digitalab 

The subscription service costs £50 a drop (approximately $65) from Analogue Wonderland.
