Any News with Agfa Photo?

[Uncle Bill]

Are they truly bust because I was knocking around the Canadian distributor Amplis Photo and they had a press release from June stating that the North American operations of Agfa Photo are unaffected and its business as usual. There is still a decent supply of Black and white film up here thankfully and the Agfa Photo website is still operational. If the company were truly shut down the site would be gone.

I don't know about North America Bill but I can tell you that here in Korea my shop has told me they can't get any Multicontrast paper from their distributor. This is really a pain becuase this paper is (IMHO) better than Multigrade FB or Forte. Fingers crossed they can continue with this excellent product at least.

I don't think the company has shut down but it is in receivership.

Have a look at this thread

With regards to B&W film, my tea leaves say Agfa is gone.

Anyone know much about their color films? I see Agfa Vista, PhotoPlus and Perutz Primera from their shop here.
