Notes
- I'm lazy
- I'm also impatient
- Money solves those problems quite well
- Developing b/w at home is fun, however
Shanghai GP-3
- Very cheap film, you get what you pay for by all accounts
- About 3-4 AUD per roll
- ISO 100, 120 format
- I've developed one roll myself and the frame numbers from the backing paper are imprinted on the film. Quite shit, but not bad for first DIY development anyway
- I bought a pack of 10 rolls because why not, and if these are newer stock then maybe the numbers won't imprint
Kodak Portra 160
- 135 format
- Pleasing results for portraits, good colours, might lose highlight details easily
Kodak Ektar 100
- 120 format
- Looks to produce nice results, need to see some big prints and shots taken in ideal conditions
- 16 AUD sold as single roll from Fotolab
Fuji Velvia
- 135 format
- ISO 50?
- Expensive to get developed, can't DIY
- Results were pleasing enough but somewhat lacklustre, should've overexposed a little
Ilford Delta 3200
- 135 format
- Very grainy in all conditions
- Low contrast in low light situations, wonderfully moody
- Higher contrast in bright conditions, still grainy but pleasing
- Expensive to get developed, better to DIY
Fuji Cinevia 100D
- Single-8 format
- Daylight balanced
- 40' spool
- Apparently rebranded/reloaded Astia 100 stock
Lodged in-person for developing at Retro Enterprises and mailed back home by EMS for 1200yen (2 spools)
- Not yet viewed or scanned
Fuji R25N
- Single-8 format
- Daylight balanced
- ISO 25
- 50' spool
Lodged in-person for developing at Retro Enterprises and mailed back home by EMS for 1200yen (2 spools)
