radu_liviu Posted June 13, 2003 Share Posted June 13, 2003 I have a puzzle: do regular labs in USA have a problem processing Agfa films (or Konika films)? I have processed some Agfa films in Germany and the result was much, much better. For the Fuji or Kodak mailer, what results is to be expected if I send Agfa slides to them? I am also wondering what would be the improvements in the new Velvia/Astia films. Astia is one of the best films I have ever used... What can be improved for such a perfect film? Thank you for your answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill_tuthill Posted June 16, 2003 Share Posted June 16, 2003 For Agfa, yes some. For Konica, yes most. There are many Agfa minilabs in my area, but few Konica-based labs. As you would expect, the Agfa minilabs do well with Agfa films. Most Agfa films also print well on Noritsu minilabs and Qualex maxilabs with Kodak Royal or Edge paper. However Fuji SFA labs really mangle most Agfa films, even those using Kodak paper, and Crystal Archive is not a good match for Agfa C-41. Astia's grain and resolution could be improved. Can't answer your RSX/CT question, but assume the answer would be yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
