Because HDC plus penetrates even shadowy areas and gives them the power they need to produce absolutely awesome pictures.

Strength:

None unless you can scan it yourself with the right profile. Agfa don't produce film anymore and there was a improved version .

Weakness:

Where do you start ?

Sorry guys but this is a awful film , In fairness most consumer d&p labs are set up for and apparently owned /franchised for Kodak or Fuji.
The grain is more like a 400/800 ASA old school fast colour negative .
I did try scanning it @ 3600 dpi with a Prime Film 3600u scanner which isn't exactly the best scanner in the world !, but I lack the profiles with the very basic Silver Fast software . The latest 6.5 version has Negfix with a updated version of all the profiles

Strength:

High colour saturation - vivid and strong colours. Fine grain. Good sharpness. Wide exposure latitude. Works well in mixed lighting

Weakness:

Since it's an uncommon film, many labs does not have a correct processing channel for it - so the result can be really poor. But correctly processed, this film is stunning.

A good and inexpensive print film with high colour saturation, excellent sharpness and fine grain. My favourite colour print film.

Strength:

Cheap.

Weakness:

Grainy.

I used these for shooting landscape. The results were not really good. I also used Fujiclour Reala, Speria, Kodak Gold and Royal Gold. The Agfa/Gevaert HDC plus 200 was the worst. I do not think that I will use them anymore.
