I bought a three pack of Lady Grey, intending to use it in some zoom compacts to feature on my channel. When it arrived I found it had no DX code on the cannisters, so no good for DX cameras with no override.
After buying the film I subsequently saw some speculation the the film is, in fact, Fomapan 400 and that upset me because I have given up on Foma films because of suspect quality control affecting some emulsions.
I have now shot my first roll in the Fuji STX-2 and developed it in Ilfosol 3. I have to say the results were very satisfying - good contrast, detail and finer grain than you would expect from Fomapan 400, which made me think the speculation was wrong.
The box states "Made in the Czech Republic", so it is almost certainly Fomapan. I then compared the look to some previously shot films and came to the conclusion that it is actually Fomapan 200 pushed one stop.
Yes this gives good looking images, but Fomapan 200 was about £2 a roll cheaper when I bought the Lady Grey, and Fomapan 200 has DX codes and also frame numbers on the negative margins.
In conclusion: I will not be trusting Lomo again, thankyou, but I also believe that AW know exactly what is contained in the Lomo packaging, and for not making us aware of it they get their first black mark from me.
Very clear, however a little flat, I haven't tried pushing it yet but that might provide great results
I've been loyal to Tri-X all my life, but three rolls of mixed out and about shooting over the summer with Lady Grey has just about turned me. Grain isn't intrusive and quite pleasant when it is visible, the mid-tones are superb. If there's one small negative (no pun intended!) it's that blacks can block in. Highlights on the other hand don't blow out very easily.
A film that forgives your exposure mistakes and works well in low light. I enjoy the gradual shades of grey and grain, it’s not high contrast, but there are other films for that.

I love this film, there is a fair amount of grain, but it’s super contrasty and produces some lovely photos. Seems to have a fair amount of exposure latitude and is quite forgiving for both over and under exposure
