Hello !
This film is for aerial use. It is produced (was) by Agfa Mortsel in
Belgium.
As far as I know, they had huge rolls made and stored in fridges. I do
not know if the emulsion was made in Mortsel or in Leverkusen before
they closed the German plant ?
Yes Richard, this plant is the old Gevaert plant.
Maybe Emmanuel Bigler will show in because I thinks he knows more that
we do about it.
As per Maco, they are not stranger to sensational claims....
Just my 2c here !

Richard,
This is E6 processed.
Here is a link to Freestyle photo. They sell this film...you can see
the label on the following page:

.... I think this is a film to use for
distant landscapes mainly, the UV filter layer can be
useful to block
excessive blue light; perhaps I'll try it, there is a guy
selling the
Rollei CR 200 in the local eBay auctions site.
I received today a nice plastic box with two 35mm "Rollei
Digibase CR
200 Pro" slide film cassettes x 36 ( Agfa Aviphot), 35mm D.P.
Polyester, Process E-6; the box cap is engraved "ROLLEI - Rollei
films",they are made by Agfa Belgium according the label, it
also says
"Producer and license holder MACO PHOTO PRODUCTS". I'd prefer
to try
the 120 version, but it is not available here. Who did say Agfa no
longer manufactures photographic films?
Carlos
This is very interesting. There is an internal conflict in the
label since it says in one place that it was made by AGFA in
Belgium and in another that it was "produced"
under license by MACO. To me "produced" means manufactured. AGFA
Belgium would be the former Gevaert plant perhaps. Do you know any
further details. Also, what developing process does this stuff use?
