Re: [APML] New film offerings?
Hi Jeff,
Check out page 6 on this PDF:
http://www.agfa.com/photo/products/pdf/F-AF-E5_en.pdf
Agfa Ultra 100 has a short peak red layer, though apparently not as bad as with some other films. But I still doubt it'll be any good for recording H-a.
Interestingly, the APS system Agfa Futura films have a good red sensitivity peak around good ol' 650nm. apparently, they haven't "improved" that film yet <g>.
