Loving this film at the moment - great grain and fantastic contrast. The price makes it accessible to all film shooters, which is good.
Loaded this into my OM-10 after getting it through my WonderBox supscription, and took it out to a forest after it had snowed. Really love the vintage tone of this film, the high contrast worked perfectly for some landscape shots - including a couple of wild horses who wandered over for a photoshoot!
I understand this is something of a hybrid film, somewhere between traditional cubic grain and modern T-grain technology. As such it doesn't look or behave much like Fomapan 100 or 400. It is it's own beast with it's own look. I have no troubles shooting at box speed, and find the images are a little lower in contrast than the other Fomapan products while the more modern grain structure also makes it less "gritty". This may well be what you're looking for in which case it could be ideal for your needs. It's a general purpose film, not specifically made for any one type of photography. I've used it for street photography, landscapes, nature and the odd portrait. It's good at everything. Also a great film to experiment with as it's very cost effective. Not really suited to low light photography or to pushing.
I've only shot one roll of this, and I'm seriously impressed, especially for the price. I took it for a walk on a gloomy, wet day, so my experience is limited to low-contrast, overcast daylight, but definitely got some nice, contrasty images, and had a lot of fun. I'd definitely recommend giving this a try. Photos shot on Pentax K1000
Fomapan 200 is a budget priced film and I got a very fair result. Trying it of course will be the way to find if its character suits you. LB
