The Lomography B&W 100 120 is a black and white film.
The film, distributed by Lomography, can be used in medium format cameras like the Diana and Holga. There is no 35mm format variant.
The film in Lomography’s packaging is “Made in China.” This points to Shanghai as the manufacturer, more specifically the Shanghai GP3 100. The development times are also consistent with Chinese film and can be applied to Lomo film. A good developer for the film is good old Rodinal.
It is sold only in a pack of 3 rolls of film. Only a limited number of frames will fit on a roll, depending on the camera. Most camera can expose 12 or 16 frames on a roll.
It was discontinued in the middle of 2012. As an alternative, you can reach for the Shanghai GP3 100 or, if you want to continue using Lomography film, you can reach for the Earl Grey B&W 100 120.
