Has any one ever tried any of this Black and white film made in China,
Shanghai GP3 120 ISO 100 B&W 
or
4X5 GP3 130 100 sheet B&W 

I'm just curios how the results where? Good ,bad or undecided.

If you could have access to the stuff,
why don't you test it and tell us about it? :)

Light is free… capturing it is not!

I move a little slow but I tried some of that film

Below is a scan of a print I made from the Shanghai 4X5 film. I'm just playing with this large format camera I got. I think it turned out ok.



Below is a Neg scan of the 4x5 that I put over the 120 holder in  the scanner.


I have also a roll of 120 that I have loaded for the large format camera that I hope to shoot and developed this week , if all goes well.
a side note I haven't been in a darkroom since the late 80's. so I'm learning all over again.

cheers

This 4x5 neg was loaded in a old Polaroid model 95b, kinda under exposed for the light, should of been an even slower shutter speed on a tripod. but not a bad result I think 


this 4x5  looks pretty good also, I think. other than the dust problem I got with it


once again 4x5 negs scanned in the 120 holder
