I've just developed a few rolls of R=B3. The 120 appears to be identical
to Cube 400c, without the edge markings. Cube has edge markings: 'Cube
400c' and numbers (numbers often so blurred as to be unreadable). The
R=B3 has the same blue base and it is just as curly.

The 135 is physically different from the 135 Cube I've used: the base
is grey instead of light blue, and doesn't curl nearly as much as 135
Cube. Thank goodness. The 135 does have edge markings. The numbering
on the 135-36 rolls I have is out of sync with the load. For example,
one roll started at frame 16, went to 42 then started from 0 to frame
12. The text says 'ROLLEI R3 MADE IN GERMANY V41-0'.

So far I've only done initial tests in 'Rollei High Speed' developer
at EI 200, 400 and 1600. I haven't used enough to pass judgement.

Best,
Helen
