You're confusing cost with price. They might have sold less product with a
lower price. Think about that Forte film. How many people refuse to buy
Forte,Efke etc because it's "cheap" and therefore not any good. OTOH stick
the Forte in a nicer box. Raise the price. Watch the same people rave about
the special film worth any price.

Ah yes, Forte film in a fancy box with a higher price - isn't that what they call Bergger?

        Sorry, that was a cheap shot.

Agfa 4x5 was even cheaper then Ilford. I can't get any more-(

I never really liked Agfapan, in any speed or format. I certianly tried a fair bit of it in both 120 and 4x5, because like you said, it was cheaper than Kodak or Ilford.

However when Agfa stopped making thier graded Portriga paper - then I was p'od big time. I really liked that paper. Galerie is hard to find anymore too. Whats the matter with all you guys, you don't like graded papers?
