Good question. Does AGFA actually still make quality color film anymore? I have no clue. My guess is no (I am not counting Wolfen 400/500 as quality color films made by InovisCoat...which I think is an off-shoot of some part of AGFA)

Very curious, indeed! It does say "Made in Germany" vs "Packaged in Germany" or something like that. My guess was that it was just Kodak Gold 400 (like what retails as Fuji 400) sent to Germany in bulk and packaged there. Fingers crossed for you that it looks closer to Kodak Gold than Wolfen 400. Post your results when you have them!

Agfa color film used to be repackaged Fuji, but AgfaPhoto Color 400 is a new film and apparently manufactured in Germany. That doesn’t leave a lot of options regarding what it’s based on and the most likely film seems to be Wolfen NC500.

Whoa. I emailed Foma about issues I'd had on a bulk roll of Foma 400. They had no problem admitting the defect, but that was the extent of recompense.
Bummer.

A few weeks ago, I posted photos, taken on HP-5, from my new to me Yashica D. I had a hard time getting any decent contrast and all of the images were way too bright. I thought my meter was off, there was a problem with the shutter or the lens. I even adjusted my developing time. I wrote it off as a bad experience,
Yesterday, I was preparing to scan a roll of HP-5 from the Vivitar Ultra Wide & Slim. Open up Negative Lab Pro and notice the Color Mode is set for Noritsu. Apparently in my zeal to see how the new camera works, I failed to change the setting to B&W. Feel free to laugh.
I went through and scanned them again with the proper settings, No adjustments after conversion.

I can't believe it's been 6 months since I bought a Holga and shot a roll of film. I just haven't had time since then - I've been concentrating on keeping my creative business afloat. Tough times.
So I got the inspiration to take the plastic fantastic out today. Kodak T-Max 100 (expired 2020) and developed in DF96 that was mixed in February, stored in a collapsible (no air) container, and it still did the job!!! Developed for 15 minutes (T-max needs 2x normal processing time) agitating (twirling) 5 sec every minute. Seems that everything worked fine!

Took the Pen FT out yesterday, and it is hard to see critical focus. The 40mm f1.4 has nice rendering near wide open and close,but not so good at distance near wide open. I'll have to stop down to probably f5.6 to get the best it can offer. However, I have already adapted manual focus Nikkor ai (third shot), and DKL mount lenses - and they work great.
