robert_edge Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 I was just looking into this myself. If you do a search here and at www.apug.org, you will find discussions about trying to develop Agfa Scala oneself. The discussions are not encouraging. I gather that you are in the US. As far as I can determine, there are currently two US labs that will develop this film: http://mainphoto.com/services/agfa_scala_film_processing.htm www.dr5.com DR5 uses its own proprietary process to made transparencies from Scala and other black and white films. In other words, it is not Agfa's process. I have seen conflicting statements about whether Main Photo's process is, or is not, identical with the Agfa process. One caveat to this. Duggal in New York lists Scala processing on its home page. However, there is no price list for it. So perhaps they still do it, perhaps they don't: www.duggal.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert_edge Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Ahhh, I posted before seeing Mr. Huff's reply. Perhaps he can elaborate on the process that his Main Photo is using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fotohuis RoVo Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Agfa Scala can be processed yourself in the Fomapan R100 kit. http://shop.fotohuisrovo.nl/product_info.php?cPath=21_25_28&products_id=184 According THIS R100 process: http://www.fotohuisrovo.nl/documentatie/F_pan_R_en.pdf Here is a German article about B&W slide film development: http://www.schwarzweiss-magazin.de/swmag_frame_leser.htm "Kehrt Um" Agfa Scala in Heimarbeit.

richam Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Don't know if you are interested or not. But for great negatives than produce that "Scala Look," when printed or scanned, you can develop Scala as a negative. I like the look and results. Rodinal 1+25, 18C, 8.5 minutes. Will try to post an example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nikos peri Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 I second what Michael suggests; try it also as a negative and develop normally. I use HC110<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richam Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Nikos, What time, temperature, and dilution do you use with HC110? Here's another shot from a Greek Village festival.<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikos peri Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 That is Agfa Scala at 100 EI in HC110B for 8 minutes at 20C... I don't recall, but there may have been a red filter on the lens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jml_. Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Any chance of being able to actually buy some Scala? Shot it, love it. Need it. Looking for 20 + rolls.... Any advice? Google searchs yield nothing. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richam Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 JML, Don't know where you are located, but <a href="http://www.bhphotovideo.com/">B&H</a> carries it in the US, but they seem to be out of stock in 35mm right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
