    Just wondering if anyone here has used Agfa Scala (black and white slide film)?
    I bought a few rolls to try and I'm just wondering how I should treat it/what to expect?

    Any comments?

    Ack, isn't the whole beauty of slides that you've got such delicious colour tones and saturation when you're viewing them... why would anyone want to go b'n'w? <shudder>
    Can't really speak about the Scala film, but generally any Agfa slides I've seen have come out very nicely indeed.
    Are they the pre-paid send-away kind then?

    Sometimes colour does not make an image, in fact a lot of images have much more impact in black and white.

    Yes, this is a send away job. There is no lab in Ireland, that I am aware of, that has facilities to process this film.

    I don't think the following photo would have the same impact in colour somehow.
