Hello there
I just developed two black and white film rolls. That was a painful experience, because of my bad choice of film:
👿 The Lucky SHD400 is too thin, curling on itself like crazy, slipping on the reel.
🫤 The Lomography earl grey 100 is a bit thicker, better catch on reel’s sides and locking ball.
I wish next rolls will be easier to feed on the reel, any advices ?
Until now nothing beats the Kikipan 320. But it’s not produced anymore.
Asking AI seems only to praise most expensive films, not sure if it is true or biased.
Also I tired asking on the mastodon and associated platform first with not much luck.
Hopefully lemmy is better suited for that kind of open question ?
Funny. I actually prefer the plastic reels. I feel like the metal ball bearings (not present in the only metallic reel I ever owned) do all of the hard work for me.
Maybe it’s just what I got used to?
