Rihard-
I think it's this Cannik means: https://ntphotoworks.com/product/agfa-scala-35mm-36exp/ The vendor suggests a few differet people who will process for you (Germany and USA) or he'll sell you a reversal kit. If it looks anything llike the original Scala was lovely stuff. ps- Other (cheaper) reversal kits are available https://shop.silverprint.co.uk/Fomap.../54404/V70150/ Last edited by skellum; 30th September 2019 at 06:18 PM. |

Adox Scala 50 is simply HR-50 with a new label to demonstrate the emulsions capabilities when processed as a slide. You can process this film the same as you would HR-50 to get a negative image. If you want a slide then skellum is right, there are many places worldwide that will process reversal for you, I believe the Adox website has a few recommendations. Reversal processing black and white negatives is much easier than it may seem. Foma makes a kit, bellini makes a kit there used to be a tmax kit not sure if thats still on the market or you can make up the chemistry yourself from recipies online. You will need a suitable bulb for a re exposure step and a reel that can be loaded wet (stainless steel) if you cant load the reel wet you can attempt to mix up your own reversal bath using formulas online (IIRC the darkroom cookbook has one in it) or just do the rest of the processing using the "see saw" method.
Black and white slides are fantastic when done right, the first thing you'll notice is the incredible tonality when scanned with a suitable scanner or printed on direct positive paper. Best wishes, hope the photos come out good! |

I've just had an email from Fotoimpex about a new reversal processing kit for Adox Scala.
https://www.fotoimpex.com/chemistry/...rocessing.html Now, I haven't taken any black and white slides since the 1980s and early 1990s when Agfa DiaDirect was still available and had to be sent off to Wimbledon for processing. I've just bought some Adox Scala 50 from Nik & Trick but have been wondering which processing kit to get: the Bellini, the Foma, or something else. The specific processing times for Scala were missing from the instructions from the Bellini and the Foma, so I hope that the Adox kit gives these details. I certainly can't find them on the Adox website at the moment, nor any mention of the kit itself. Does one have to be gentle on the Scala film in the same way that Ferrania P30 isn't recommended for use in a motor-driven camera? I have a choice of Leica M, Contax RTSII, Rollei 35, or the motor-only Rolleiflex 3003. |
