I started with this film as cheap food for a Holga, developed in R09 diluted 1:50 for 15min at 20C. I never got around to a direct comparison with FP4, Plus X or Foma 100. The only means I have of doing so is not with a Rollei, but two Super-Rollex magazines on a Graflex. The defeciencies I have observed so far are that the numbers on the backing paper are not very clearly printed, not an issue after one has found exp 1 with a Rollei. The other is a tendency to curliness. Perhaps I should hang it with a heavier weight on the bottom?


I tried Foma 100 before this film. Maybe it just doesn't like R09 (Rodinal) and it's effective speed drops to 50 ASA. When I tried the Shanghai I had a good set of negatives with the FP4 timing in Rodinal.

Well' im going to Scotland in June. Should I persevere with Foma or take some Shanghai?
