I hate to have to disagree with a fellow fisherman, but in 120, I find that Foma 400 is always dead flat when dry, unlike HP5, and FP4 which usually have a slight curl. Tri x is slightly curlier, I find..... Alan |

Foma changed the 120 film base so both can be right

Wow! I didn't know there was a problem with film laying flat in the neg carrier I have had trouble with contact printing 120 because I use a pane of glass.
I have always taken the curl in a film as being wound to tight on the reel inducing a set hence the curl. I've put it down one of life's, what should be simple is made difficult to keep it interesting.

I have just developed with ilfosol 3 a roll of fomapan 200 at 1x9 20c for 4mins 30sec
and it has come out very flat hardly any contrast and could do with another 2 mins development ,after I developed the fomapan ,I developed a roll of hp5 at 6mins 30sec and that is just perfect .. now this is making me think that I should have developed the fomapan at 6min 30sec or maybe even 7mins . I have got 9 roll of fomapan left so I will try again soon and let you know how I get on .when I get it right I will know then if its any good .I wont be replacing ilford film with anything else because I am used to it and it does what I want it to do ,but it makes a change sometimes to try other makes of film.. so that's my excuse to go out with my camera and have some fun .. www.essexcockney.com |

I took the grandkids to the funfair at Canvey island Essex the other day and took two rolls of film fp4 and fomapan 200 I developed both in ilforsol 3 ,the fomapan for 6mins 30 sec which seems about right ,I found that the fomapans grain was a bit off-putting and the contrast seemed very soft the fp4 is so much finer grain there was more detail and sharpness in the ilford prints, than the fomapan prints .I will use it up but I will be sticking to ilford fp4 and fast film hp5 and Kodak tx . I am sure that being used to a film makes it easer to use ,and other people may like the results they get from fomapan ,at the end of the day you pays your money and takes your choice ,and its good to have a choice of films I have 7 rolls left and I will see how they go ,and have fun using them.......

I develop Fomapan 100 in LC29 using timings straight from Massive Dev Chart. My issue with Fomapan has always been there always seem to be voids in the emulsion or clusters of dark spots. The voids turn up as dark spots on prints and the dark spots manifest like dust on prints. Has anyone else seem these inconsistencies in Fomapan.
