Agfa Moviechrome 40 (what to do-give away?)

Post by Rollef »

Hi people.
I have two unused Agfa Moviechrome 40, process before 07/88, and i'm just not shure what to do with them.

(See "Can Agfa Moviechrome 40 be developed" thread on this forum)

Do any of you guys want them?

I can't find the other thread you mentioned.

I'd be happy to take them. I always have liked the Agfa's color palette.

What do you think is different or special about this palette?

That's too bad. :?

Agfa's color palette are slightly paler, and gives a less bluish hue than Ektachrome does. The Afga also has less noticeable purplish-red hue overall than Ektachrome.

I liked that clip, and the colours of it. To bad Agfa stopped making that film. I think this has been discussed before, so i'll stop ;-)

My company can process these films - no problem! So if you want to film with them, just make sure you don't film anything that's really important since the films have a tendency to fade if not exposed before the expiry date.
