Lomo lady grey is foma. The color of the prewash is the kicker. What they do is repackage the foma and rate it at a different iso so that it looks a bit different than the foma of the same speed. So Lady Grey is probably 200 foma. I did an experiment where I shot Lady Grey at 200 and a roll of foma 200. They came out exactly the same.

There's definitely a lot of evidence to suggest that, but no one really knows exactly what's what. All I can say is that I don't think I get the same look to my negatives with Foma 400. But I don't know the answer!

Got myself a S2A and putting it's first roll through currently. The 6x6 need to grow on me but it's a camera who deserves more love, agree!

Congratulations on your S2A!! You’re going to love that camera so much! I’m excited for you. The 6x6 is weird…. I go in and out of love with it. No advice to offer other than the obvious - look for more vertical content in your compositions! Portraits on 6x6 work great.

I thought Lady Gray is just reboxed Foma - is that not the case?

I really liked this one, genuinely impressed with it. And it stands up really well alongside Kodak Tri-X 400. I thought it held its own even next to the FP4. Nice film, definitely worth a try!

I enjoy your film tests and reviews, Nick! You really enjoyed using your (noisy) Bronica cameras! 😉 The portraits are amazing. Your model was patient and looked like either Sir Lancelot or Butch Cassidy from the old American West! Lovely grey shades from this film. I may give it a try 🎉👍🏻 Thanks for the video!

Nice Video, with a model like this all films look good😂. I was also impressed when you showed the closeups for the grain, I expected it to be more prominent. But I also agree that it is quite subtle on 120 film.The blacks in front of the dark shed looked really nice. I really liked your S2A in action. The camera just looks so cool! I got the focus on mine now tech sharp with a modified film back where I replaced the film holder with a transparent sheet of paper. It worked nicely. I got that idea from your 4x5 large format camera. I hope lomography will bring out the Fantôme 8 film in 120, that would be fun. Thx for sharing the video

I know right? He's a good man to photograph, he's just head to toe texture! The grain on that film is pretty amazing for a 400ISO. Better in 120 of course, as you say. I realised when shooting this one how much I've missed my S2A, you can expect to see more from that one in future vids! Interesting, tell me more about the transparent paper, what did you do exactly?

@@the120ist I bought a spare film back for the S2A (old one, was sold as spare parts), removed the back cover and took out the film holder. Then cut a piece of parchment paper to 6x6 (in lack of a spare ground glass) and glued it to the opening on the camera side. The paper was now exactly where the film would be in a real film back. With the shutter set to bulb, you can check the image on the parchment. You need a bright motif to check for sharpness, it is a lot darker than the normal Fresnel/ground glass combo. But in general it works like a second viewfinder. I was able to adjust the real viewfinder without wasting rolls of film. In the end the problem on my bronica was the foam under the mirror. That is now fixed and my favorite medium format camera works also at f 2.8 :-)
