ORWO Wolfen UN54 100 BW Film Sample Photos

Looking for ORWO Wolfen UN54 sample photos? These frames were shot on ORWO’s famous UN54 — an ISO 100 black and white 35mm film derived from classic cine stock, produced on the historic Wolfen site.

UN54’s fine grain and subtle contrast give a cinematic, medium-speed look that works especially well in bright daylight and detail-focused scenes — long one of ORWO’s best-known emulsions.

About La Lomita Chapel: La Lomita (“the little hill”) Chapel stands near the Rio Grande south of Mission, Texas. The first chapel was built in 1865 on René Guyard’s ranch, which he left to the Oblate missionaries; it became a resting stop for the “Cavalry of Christ” — priests who rode on horseback between Brownsville and Roma to serve remote ranches. The chapel was rebuilt at its current site in 1899 with sandstone dug from the nearby hill, and the city of Mission takes its name from it. It is a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark (1964) and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places (1975).
