33 Cent Film

[jon_flanders]

I was perusing the wares in a dollar store located in one of our many area malls.

What did I happen upon but a bin of 35mm film. Buy one, get two free. I looked at the box. Not much info about the film, except a line "made in Germany."

So what the heck, its only a dollar to try it.

Got the first roll back, turns out this is Agfa 100, don't know what variety from the negative. Pretty nice though. I went back an got 9 more rolls. Probably should clean them out.

The film is labeled Solo DCF.

Sold online for .49 at

Attached are a couple of shots from the first roll.

Looks a lot like my rebranded Walgreens Agfa does color-wise.

Wal-Mart sells Agfa film under the name Polaroid. It says on the box in small type Agfa film, made in Germany.

I always liked Agfa film for use with the Nikkor's shooting birds at a local wetlands. It is not the "Picture Postcard" color of Kodak or Fuji, and worked out well with the higher contrast lenses.

Hey, not bad! I'd love to get my hands on some inexpensive good quality film.
