Shanghai GP3 100 is one of the most affordable medium format films. I test out a roll in a Kodak Duaflex II box camera on a trip to Scotland.

All the cons you list are pros, considering it's an obscure format for certain old cameras and you need a very retro feel. Seems to be made to 1950's specs!

For certain it is a matter of taste, I listed what I feel are cons of the film to offer a balanced view. I am glad I didn't have the backing paper numbers transferring to the film. I do see how curly this film is as a drawback for scanning, compared to other film stocks

Always great to see a sensible review of something that isn't just a list of features and an affiliate link !
@TonyJWells
Aye I do write in my own style, maybe not in the most formal way but it is my honest opinion. I am enjoying my film journey, trying out as many film stock as I can and writing up my thoughts along with the photos. Both 35mm and now adding medium format. Also some 16mm trimmed film in some USSR subminiature cameras, with 3D printed cartridges coming soon!
I considered a small affiliate link at the end of the review, but I opted for just my Patreon link/tips jar for those interested

Looking forward to the tiny camera results!
