What are your experiences with Fomapan 100? I know it is not the best film at all, but I quite recently started with b/w film photography and home development, and I didn't want to waste top dollar on some practice rolls. The first photos I took and developed came out, well, not that great at all, but that is also to blame on the shitty camera (Olympus Trip 35 point and shoot which allows for almost no manual settings, plus I don't really trust the 50 y/o light meter/auto aperture contraption). I have a better camera (Olympus OM-1n) now and I'm going to shoot some practice/test rolls tomorrow, again on Fomapan 100, which I will then develop to see if all the shutter speeds etc. still work. Now, I don't really know what the concrete differences between quality film and budget film look lime exactly, so I'd like some reference material on Fomapan 100, taken by someone who knows what he's doing and has proper gear, so I can possibly cross out the film as a factor in sharpness etc. in the future, so I can decide a good point where my hopefully increased skill will warrant an upgrade to better quality film. Pic related was taken on Fomapan 100 with an Olympus Trip 35, pls no bully, it's just to give an impression of the 'quality' of my first self-developed roll, it's by no means meant as a good photo. (and, yes, I did forget to clean my scanner)
tl;dr can someone post his best picture taken on Fomapan 100?
