St. Peter's Church, Elmton

My 135mm lens (the only LF lens I own) meant I was limited in choices of composition here, so I had to pick this vantage point at the rear of the church to get it all in frame.

Nice shot I like Fomapan 100 in 4x5.

Nice shot I like Fomapan 100 in 4x5.

Thanks @Flack . I like the look it gives, although I have encountered issues with quality in the past (and one sheet of this pack of 4x5 for that matter). It's very affordabble by comparison to other films though, which offsets that a little.

It’s funny I have shot a lot of this 100 film and never had a problem, just got some 200 and 400 film to try as well.

There was a batch a few years ago that resulted in tiny white speckles on the negatives. I ended up with a few rolls of that in 120 format. I contacted Foma and they sent me some replacement film though, which was good service.

I also ran into the problem with Foma 200 in 120 format. As with you, they made good on it and explained that the Foma 120 is a blend of some sort of T-Grain and conventional grain silver particles. In 120, they were having problems with the T-Grain falling off. According them a year or so ago, they are "working on the problem."
