More MTL5 using 'Agfa Ultra 50 'film

[pentaxpete]

I loaded my 'Gift' Praktica MTL5 with a cassette of 2002 dated Agfa Ultra 50 ( been in FREEZER waiting for some Good Light! )
i used an SMC Takumar 50mm f1.4 not the 50mm f2.8 Tessar as the grease is so stiff it unscrews the lens as I try to Focus
35mm f2.4 Carl Zeiss MC Flektogon DDR


SMC Takumar 50mm f1.4

These are lovely!! I have been looking for some Agfa Ultra 50 for YEARS. If you have any more and feel like selling it, I’d love to purchase some!!

Have a read of the forum rules regarding buying and selling dude...

I'll overlook this one, but please don't try it again.

I've had that happen to me

Nice test shots but they look rather colourful, is that the normal look to the film?

Sorry to reply 'Dude' but it was sent to me by another Forum member in 35mm and 120 and I want to USE it not sell it !
YES-- the 'Colour' is fairly accurate as when it came out at PhotoKina years ago it was advertised as a 'Strong Saturated Emulsion' BUT it was extra EXPENSIVE and AGFA was already expensive -- so not many people bought it and it was 'Discontinued' . Now it's too late to get it !
