Strength:
Crisp negatives with even contrast/easy to locate.
Weakness:
None I love Agfa APX-100. Ever since I tried this film, I have been a big fan of the "look" that their film produces; even contrast and very sharp images for a 100 speed film. Too bad they don''t make APX-25 anymore... Similar Products Used: None |

Strength:
Very fine grain.
Weakness:
None This film can capture very subtle details in subjects. If you like lots of detail this film can produce beautiful prints, even when the negative is enlarged many times. I have an 8x10 print of a tree frog the size of my lttle finger - you can clearly see the folds of skin and the frog's blood vessels! Similar Products Used: Ilford FP4+ |

Strength:
Low Cost, T-Max 100 is 4 times costlier than APX100 in India. Fine Grain high sharpness, robust.
Weakness:
Very High contrast. Highlight portion tends to scatter when developed in D76 1:1 for 12min at 20 Deg C. AGFA developer is not available with the film in India. It creates problem to extract the best combination. Response from AGFA Germany is not clear regarding this problem. Customer Service Very poor in India. It seems Bayer is not interested to do business in this big market. Similar Products Used: All black and White film from KODAK and ILFORD. |

Strength:
Very Fine Grain
Weakness:
none What more can you ask of a B&W film. Good Contrast, fine grain make it perfect for enlarging. Price is around that of other B&W films but Agfapan produces better results. I use this film for photo class and it works fine with the developer we are provided. Customer Service --- Similar Products Used: T-Max 100, 400 |
