I thought Reala was basically Provia100f resold as cheaper film?
Also, I didn't realize China was still so bad you couldn't even photograph protests. So how come you can get away with being seen taking the photos? You're using a 120 camera of some kinds, so it must be noticeable?

I think you've mistaken it for superia. On Wikipedia it says superia reala was the professional film stock and superia was the general consumer version early on. Then later superia film stocks inherited the technology of the reala films. I don't shoot much color but reala is hands down my fav.
As for the protests there are so many people documenting it I would not be surprised if there aren't a number of medium format film shooters there. Hong Kong seems to have a fairly large photo and analog film audience. You should try scanning them yourself if you have a digi cam, or contact print them and use a regular scanner.
As for what film I've shot recently, I put a roll of tmax 400 through my new to me fuji dl super mini zoom. Quite a name for a tiny camera. It's a test roll so I'm hoping for the best.
isnt Hong Kong its own?
3 sheets of whole plate HP5 Plus. It was four but I took out the dark slide with the lens still open on the first exposure.
(After all these years and I still manage to foul up with such a basic error!)

I did that about a month ago on my 8x10...
BUT I decided to process it anyway... It took me a while to figure out which image was the "bad" one... I lucked out and both were exposed relatively to the same degree, the only difference was the depth of field on the "oops" shot, you should process it anyway and see if you got anything
When I pulled the Darkside out, there was a teeny tiny bit of camera shake, nothing serious, but I have to admit even to myself I was very surprised at how sharpen the image came out, I'm really impressed with this Chamonix!
If it makes ya'll feel better I was going to shoot some 2.25X3.5 HP5+ in the Linhof a while back... not being familiar with the film, I just assumed (bad idea, I know) that it was like the other B&W films I'd used in grade school. So, I waited until after dark, put the red safelight bulb into the bathroom light fixture, and loaded all 3 of my grafmatic holders.
ALL of the film was ruined. Apparently, a red safelight is NOT safe.
