I was given Agfa Scala 200x B&W slide film for Christmas. I just went and blew off a roll (well, most of it anyway) at a local cemetery.
Anyone out there ever used this stuff? Apparently there are only 3 labs in the US that develop this stuff and I am planning on sending it to NY. That, in and by itself, is kind of unnerving as I have no idea on what kind of quality to expect. To me, slide film is supposed to be a one-hour E6 no-brainer, not a days-on-end, mail-off nail biter. :| The film was 7 bucks a roll, plus out of state developing, plus S&H - good god, the pressure!!! uke:
I guess my question is two-fold: a) has anyone used this film, and b) who has had wonderful success with out of state labs who can reassure me that everything is going to be fine??? :blulsh2:
