OK but not Kodak. Certainly not ASA 400, 250 tops. Also 14 minutes at 68 F. is still flat with D76 1:1. The best thing is the price, and that unlike 120 Arista which curls, this stuff stays flat.

The photos came out looking really crisp (minus a couple I overexposed) and the affordability of this black and white film vs. color film is awesome. Would recommend!

It?s rebranded Fomapan 400, so it inherits all its forebear?s qualities.

Exactly was I needed! Taking a black and white film developing course this semester and this was on the required materials list.

Ordered 3 rolls. One defective. The film tab was inside the canister so could not be used.

Workable discount film with a decent range of tones. Scratches SUPER easily in development and while handling. The emulsion is thin.

Great film for testing/learning and checking camera function and repairs without breaking the bank.

Have not received the pictures just yet but came in really good condition in package. Fit perfectly into my Canon t70. Cheaper in price than most film, great if you just want to try film photography for fun

Recommended Agitation: Agitate continuously for first 30 seconds of development, then provide agitation of 5 to 7 inversion cycles for 5 seconds every 30 seconds for remainder of development time.
Where continuous agitation is used for rotary processor, reduce the developing times by 15%.
Development times may need adjusting to suit individual processing systems and working practices. If an established system is producing good results, adjust the recommended development times until the desired contrast is obtained.
