sheet film? How does it compare with the other Arista.edu/Foma emulsions? Is it well mannered like Fomapan 100 or does it take after it's "challenged" brother 400?

I bought 100 sheets of it thinking that it'd save me $$$. It didn't.
Bad reciprocity failure and it just didn't respond right for they type of printing I favor. It just looked . . . ugly.
I would've been better off purchasing 50 sheets of FP4 for the same amount of $

Builds contrast very quickly and terrible reciprocity. That said, I like the film and am pleased to see it offered again. It works very nicely with alternative processes which require high contrast, but I had a hard time taming the contrast down to work with graded paper. I have never used the 100 or 400 versions, so can't comment or compare.
Hi Jason,
Does it differ to the "original" Arista/Foma 200? It is a great film [the original] Try it in D76 1+3 and the contrast is well behaved.
