Never heard of GP3 - how cheap is it?
Foma 100 in D76 is very good. Even better is Foma 200 which I shoot
at 200, a lot of people seem to think it's the best Foma film, and
pretty much the same price as the 100.
If you're in the U.S. order Freestyle's Artista.Edu Ultra; it is
rebranded Foma, and is very easy on the wallet.
I don't think I've ever run it in Rodinal. Rollei Retro 100 in
Rodinal is great. Both Foma and Retro a curly films.

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?
