OP - Good thread idea!

I've got my last roll of Fuji 1600 C41 in a camera right now, so it'll be awhile before I can add to this. But I'm looking forward to see what people did with their last rolls of Koda/Ekta chrome.
 

I used to shoot ALL my wedding photos on Agfa film. A friend of mine and I did a marketing test once, we showed Brides, during appointments, identical photos side-by-side. Asked them, which one do you prefer?

Interestingly, 100% they chose the Agfa photographs. So, after that, that is what we used, exclusively. Too bad they never made a 120 ASA 800 color neg film. So, we used 160 and 400.

For a period of time in the 1990's all my weddings were shot on Portrait XPS 160 with the interior shots on 400 which was quite different, higher in contrast and more yellow base.

We printed them in house on Agfa paper, in the UK Agfa had a Portrait C Type paper matched to the film, the resulting prints looked superb.

I think they did make an Agfa Vista 800 film, never used it though.
 
I took these shots on what I thought was my last roll of Neopan 1600... however six months later a friend gave me two more rolls which I'm saving for something special 🙂

Never been populair: Efke R100. Grainy film, curly film and a soft emulsion which can be damaged quickly.
However in 6x7cm grain is not an isssue. Glass, A.N. glass in the enlarger doesn't matter for curl and any wet soft emulsion you have to treat carefully.
Well the last Efke R100 film. Just made on bike to the supermarket today in Herpen. Just developed in Beutler 1+1+8 for 10 minutes at 20C. Printed by my Dunco II 67 with split grade.
Sometimes you regret that this last film batch which I bought in beginning 2012 for Eur. 1,40 for this roll film.

Some people hate it, some people like it. What is your opinion for a film we lost when Fotokemika closed their factory?

My opinion is that it was a loss, I loved it and also the stalemate R50 which was nice too.
I used my first roll in the 1980's it was a very hard film to nail down as the thin emulsion had little latitude, wonderful rendition of skin tones on the R100.

I like your shot of the trees very much, it has a nice depth.
