One of the main uses for the Agfa Scala B&W slide film
was publicity industry, however Agfa chose a bad
moment for the film because the pre-press process was
changing into digital and then the slide that offered
the best quality for the analog pre-press process
became less important for the digital process and for
worse the Agfa Scala needed a special process in a
few authorized labs.
BTW the B&W slides are excellent to be projected, I
have 24 6x6 Agfa Scala slides that I took with the
Rolleiflex 2.8C, I have seen them projected with a
Rollei P 11 projector and they looked beautiful, it
was almost like to see a new copy of "Casablanca"...
This new film is very interesting because you needn't
a special process and an authorized lob to develop it,
you can develop it in your home like a B&W neg,
perhaps the target for this film is the publicity
industry again and the users the develop the films
they use to take photographs.-
All the best
Carlos
