Shanghai GP3 100asa 220 Roll World’s Only Fresh 220 film
Now based on the lovely Orwo UN54 emulsion is a revelation a truly lovely black and white film that comes to us at a superb price.
In 2021 we worked with the factory to introduce this is a range of other formats too including 127, 620 and this, all of which are now widely used and well received.
Quality is very very high and Development can be done in most modern developers and times are listed on the Massive Dev Chart HERE!

Super impressed with my first ever 220 film. I loaded it into my Mamiya 7ii with 65mm lens and took it for a country walk in Kent on a recent cold but sunny Sunday. Developed in R09 1+50 13mins it’s come out a treat – beautiful tonal gradation and superb detail and a good dynamic range in bright conditions. It really is a good quality film. It also doesn’t have too much curl in it. No edge markings for frame numbers though, but that’s the only thing missing. I’m a very happy user, as promised by Nik&Trick 🙂

This new GP3 is an excellent film without the quality issues the old film had; and to get it in 220 format is a real bonus.
I shot my first roll in a Fuji GSW690II and developed it semistand in 510-Pyro 1:200. There were no problems loading it onto the developing roll, drying it or with the backing paper bleeding through. The tones look good.
I count this a success and I’ll definitely be trying it in other formats.
