Anyone tried this film? I've been curious about it as it is less than
$2 a roll, although you'll doubtless have to get it shipped (but that's
true of everything in my case). I got some and shot a roll and like it
pretty well. Here are a few images:

Developed in HC110/H for 12 minutes. I think the film might be
identical to Shanghai GP3. Both lack any tape to secure the finished
roll! Similar or identical backing paper. Both have a very clear film
base. The film curls a bit too much. I will try fixing it for a
shorter time next roll, though I am not using a hardening fixer.
So far the easiest and most satisfying film I have used in the Mamiya is
Fuji Acros. It is quite a bit cheaper than Kodak and Ilford films, but
UltraFine is almost half the price of Acros. I will definitely shoot
more of it.
