agfachrome 64

Matt: typical for that era...... processing and mounting was included in the price, so they did not have to say anything about it.
31 year old film.... I wonder what will come out of it.....

You could probably scratch mix chemistry. Anyone know where to find CD-1?

Actually Peter, processing and mounted included was normal for the Canadian market until very recently.

I don't think it is practically possible to have anything come out of the film that I have - I don't think the processing is available.

I kept it because of memories, and because I like the canisters .

If someone wants it, contact me.

Just got some info from C 22:

"The film is developed using a process known as Agfachrome 41, we call it AP-41. It is a very different system to Kodachrome and Ektachrome, and was discontinued around 1990. At that time it was still used for Agfa 8mm movie films".

This helps a lot Those are some cool people.

Thanks for all of your help here.

As I have read a comparison test of several E-6 and pre-E-6 slide films in a German photo magazine around 1981/1982, the processing of West German Agfachrome and East German Orwochrom films was so similar (as the technology), that the Orwo film came out well with Agfa's AP-41 processing. Why not try Agfachrome with the Orwo 9165 process:

Orwo T22 = CD1 color developer

AP-41: 12 - 14 min first dev. at 24 °C
Orwo 9165: 10 - 12 min at 25 °C

AP-41: 10 - 11 min color dev. at 24 °C
Orwo 9165: 10 - 12 min at 25 °C

Especially the frozen film stock could be helpful - one could cut one exposed film into several pieces to optimize the time.
